My MacGregor 26X sailboat

My X is very good for getting close to shore.

Our Dinghy:

I stored the dinghy on deck. I need a better method for storing the dinghy. Storing it on deck makes it was hard to see around under power. To resolve this, Tim would view one side and I would view the other.

With the help of folks from MacGregorSailors.com http://macgregorsailors.com/phpBB/ , I was able to mount my 6 hp outboard on the transom. I got it mounted correctly the first time and at just the correct height.
