2015 Tattoo MacGregor 26 Powersailor

• Description

Seller's Description

A pocket cruiser perfect for our shallow waters! Joining the best of both the sailing and motorboat worlds, the Tattoo 26 is the latests and greatest from the builder formerly known as MacGregor as the 26. This 26’ sailboat with a full set of sails and rigging can zip along in any breeze but also features an outboard engine large enough to push the boat at planing speeds when the wind dies, or to cover longer distances, or even to pull a tube or waterskier!

Quick, stable and responsive, the revolutionary Tattoo 26 is a swift and smooth handling sailboat that is capable of being trailered. A trailer is not included.

If you are buying a sailboat for the first time, performance may seem of little interest to you. However, a boat that performs well is generally safer and easier to sail. It will certainly yield greater long-term enjoyment.

I love this boat and just cant find the time to take her on the adventures I had planed on. I cant make the time to give her the attention she deserves. Life is getting in the way of all my sailing adventures. Id love to see her go on to a new home where she can be enjoyed as I had planed to do. Secure her at your slip or on a trailer of your own selection.

A beautifully sailing boat, The Tattoo 26 also offers high speed powering without compromising sailing performance. Its high speed under power opens up a variety of activities and destinations that are not available to conventional sailboats. With the 60 hp outboard the 26 can attain speeds of up to 20 mph enough to pull a water-skier!

Safety: The Tattoo 26 has several safety features that make it a first choice for both seasoned and beginning sailors. First, Solid Foam Flotation - The boat has built-in solid foam flotation to keep it afloat in the event of damage. The boat can literally fill with water and still support a crew of 6 as shown. Next, Stability - even with the ballast tank empty, the boat can take 180 lbs. on the rail and remain flat in the water. Finally, Self-Righting - when the ballast tank is filled, the 26 is completely self-righting. This means that the boat will return to an upright position after being pulled over on its side with the sails set. It takes about 300 lbs. at the top of the jib to lean the boat beyond 30 degrees, and 120 lbs at the same place to hold it on its side with the mast parallel to the water. Additional safety features include a self-bailing cockpit, non-skid deck surfaces, bow and stern pulpit and lifelines (forward and rear safety rails), kickup twin rudders and daggerboard, mainsail reefing system, stern ladder, and even lifejackets included

Rig and Sails

Auxilary power, accomodations, calculations.

The theoretical maximum speed that a displacement hull can move efficiently through the water is determined by it's waterline length and displacement. It may be unable to reach this speed if the boat is underpowered or heavily loaded, though it may exceed this speed given enough power. Read more.

Classic hull speed formula:

Hull Speed = 1.34 x √LWL

Max Speed/Length ratio = 8.26 ÷ Displacement/Length ratio .311 Hull Speed = Max Speed/Length ratio x √LWL

Sail Area / Displacement Ratio

A measure of the power of the sails relative to the weight of the boat. The higher the number, the higher the performance, but the harder the boat will be to handle. This ratio is a "non-dimensional" value that facilitates comparisons between boats of different types and sizes. Read more.

SA/D = SA ÷ (D ÷ 64) 2/3

• SA : Sail area in square feet, derived by adding the mainsail area to 100% of the foretriangle area (the lateral area above the deck between the mast and the forestay).
• D : Displacement in pounds.

Ballast / Displacement Ratio

A measure of the stability of a boat's hull that suggests how well a monohull will stand up to its sails. The ballast displacement ratio indicates how much of the weight of a boat is placed for maximum stability against capsizing and is an indicator of stiffness and resistance to capsize.

Ballast / Displacement * 100

Displacement / Length Ratio

A measure of the weight of the boat relative to it's length at the waterline. The higher a boat’s D/L ratio, the more easily it will carry a load and the more comfortable its motion will be. The lower a boat's ratio is, the less power it takes to drive the boat to its nominal hull speed or beyond. Read more.

D/L = (D ÷ 2240) ÷ (0.01 x LWL)³

• D: Displacement of the boat in pounds.
• LWL: Waterline length in feet

Comfort Ratio

This ratio assess how quickly and abruptly a boat’s hull reacts to waves in a significant seaway, these being the elements of a boat’s motion most likely to cause seasickness. Read more.

Comfort ratio = D ÷ (.65 x (.7 LWL + .3 LOA) x Beam 1.33 )

• D: Displacement of the boat in pounds
• LOA: Length overall in feet
• Beam: Width of boat at the widest point in feet

Capsize Screening Formula

This formula attempts to indicate whether a given boat might be too wide and light to readily right itself after being overturned in extreme conditions. Read more.

CSV = Beam ÷ ³√(D / 64)

Tattoo Yachts 26 ** NOW SOLD **

New boat: Tattoo 26

T he Tattoo 26, is a trailerable, 26-foot motorsailer built by Paul Sharp and Laura MacGregor Sharp. Laura is the daughter of Roger MacGregor, designer and builder of the MacGregor 26.

There are, however, important differences between the Tattoo 26 and the MacGregor. The Sharps remodeled the boat for the next generation of sailors, who will like the square-topped main, the halyards running aft to the cockpit and other changes, including cosmetic ones. The 6-foot headroom interior is warmer with bamboo trim and a multi-purpose table with built-in storage that also converts into a berth. Topsides, the mast rotates on a hinged step. A roller furler, genoa and an asymmetrical spinnaker are options.

Optimizing space with the table and the slide-away galley makes room for an enclosed head, a comfort not always seen on boats this size. The 26 sleeps six in two settee berths, a forward double and a queen-sized aft berth.

Some of the extra space comes from the fact that the engine is mounted outboard, and it's an engine that could power a boat three times the displacement of the 26. Ranging from 5 to 60 horsepower, the larger engines push the boat into powerboat performance, in the 20-knot range. Slow down to 6 knots and you can motor for 200 miles without refueling.

The 6-foot-long cockpit has winches mounted forward on either side of the companionway. The centerboard control line is lead to the cockpit, and the centerboard itself folds entirely into the hull. That's a protective feature: once the board is up, it's safe from hard landings on sand or the trailer.

As a centerboarder, the 26 needs ballast, and instead of lead in the bilge, which would affect trailering performance, the boat uses about 1,700 pounds of water ballast for stability. That's enough ballast to make it self righting. According to the Sharps, it takes about 5 minutes to fill or drain the tanks, and they can be drained while the boat is rolling down the road. As well as the solid stability, an additional safety feature is the hull's foam core, providing enough flotation to keep the boat and crew awash until help arrives.

It's more likely the crew will be awash in fun rather than water. The boat's less than 8-foot beam and 2,500-pound dry weight makes it narrow and light enough to trailer to nearly any lake with paved road access, and the 12-inch draft means that it launches off most boat ramps-and then anchors nearly on the beach.

Comments Off on Tattoo Yachts on the move

Tattoo Yachts is relocating as we have outgrown our facility. We will be out of production until we have our new location set up.

In the interim we will be completing the Tattoo 22. We pulled the first Tattoo 22 hull and deck out of the molds last week and they look even better than we had hoped.

A number of our dealers have Tattoo 26 Power Sailers available in stock, so we have set up a new page “ Where can I get a Tattoo 26? ”

Stay tuned for updates. Happy 2015 from all of us at Tattoo Yachts!

Comments Off on Late Christmas Present

We were excited to unwrap a belated Christmas present – we pulled the first Tattoo 22 deck out of the mold today. We’ve all been looking forward to seeing a finished part. It’s bright and shiny, and waiting for its hardware. And no, it’s not the orange part – the white deck comes out of the orange mold upside down and we roll it before installing hardware. Stand by for updates!

2004 Macgregor 26M with trailer. New mailsail. Serviced motor and lower unit

South Easton, Massachusetts

Make Macgregor

Length 26.0

Great condition! We purchased a larger sailboat, time to move the Mac on to its next owner! See pictures below description. ALL pictures of the actual hull for sale As you may know Macgregor is no longer building sailboats. The new company Tattoo Yachts, is also no longer producing a 26 foot sailboat. The supplies of these boats are limited to the boats that are already made. This is a perfect opportunity to purchase one of the best condition 26M sailboats out there. The trailer is the superior (despite popular belief) steel trailer. (later models have an aluminum frame, but still have a STEEL tongue, axle, bunk supports which all rust/fail as well). The trailer with this boat was professionally rebuilt with a 1/4" thick steel tongue, rustproofed on the inside (where ALL the Macgregor trailers fail first) and painted with rustproofing paint. There is a new surge brake actuator, as well as new brake calipers and brake pads. The brake line is made of stainless steel. The lighting system is newly wired with LED lights. New winch, winch strap, new security chain, new tongue winch. Bunk boards rebuilt as well. The factory trailer is superior to many aftermarket ones, as it allows the lowest trailering height (allowing launching in shallow ramps) AND a front ladder to dramatically ease launchingLots of well thought out upgrades!SailsNEW (used 1 season) MainsailGeneoa with UV strip sewn in (cleaned, serviced, folded)Roller furler with line led aft with cleat for Geneoaboots installed on spreader endsSail handlingTopling lift installedMain halyard led aftStock rotating mast with locking pin (for trailering or running down wind)ElectronicsGarmin 440s GPS Plotter and depth sounder (shoot through hull) included/installedStandard Horizon VHF radio with DSC - hooked up to GPSWired remote VHF Mic in cockpitmast top mounted VHF antennaElectrical8 circuit Blue Sea breaker panellight control subpanel2 Marine Deep Cycle batteries (starting and house) - Group 24Battery switches with Automatic Charging relay (automatically charges bothbatteries, but keeps them separated when not being charged!)110 Inverter with plug12v plugs in cockpit and cabinLightingStandard macgregor lightsAnchor light on mast topforedeck lightcockpit light under consoleHead5 gallon portable headGalleyOrigo Alcohol stoveelectric fresh water water pump with 50 gallon flexible tank and transom fill.Large cooler with tiedown2 piece table, doubles as a cockpit tableInteriorStock Macgregor cushionsNew custom carpetstorage bins and pocketsSeveral grab handles mounted throughout the interiorSolar vent fan in foredeck hatchStainless Steel hatch holder2 fire extinguishersCockpitCustom Stern rail seats installedCustom rudder control line with blocks to reduce lifting effort !Upgraded steering cablesLarge Ritchie compassCustom made, 2 piece hatchboards with screens and shades (in addition to factory solid hatchboard)Custom transom mesh guard (keep stuff from falling out the back!)Transom swim laddergrab rail mounted on hatchEngineRECENTLY SERVICED - carbs rebuilt/sync'ed; impeller replaced.Turnkey ready to go!50 HP Honda outboard with engine steering linkageupgraded throttle cables12 Gallon fuel tankCanvasCustom padded lifeline coversCustom Sailcover3 Custom made sheetbagscustom chart pockets in cockpit6' Bimini covers the entire cockpitMast handling:Mast raising system with brake winch with removable baby staysPVC roller furler support for traileringquick release removable spreadersOthermast top mounted windexFlag pole with flag for sternburgee flag block on spreader with stay mounted cleat2:1 blocks installed for daggerboard raising'Jam' cleat installed for easier daggerboard handlingCustom/improved rudder raising system with pop-up cleats and jamb cleatsAnchorDelta plow200' anchor rode6' chainTrailerNew tounge winchnew surge brake2" trailer ball requiredNew stainless steel brake lineNew tires and wheelsLED lights Please note, these pictures were taken over the years.
