Macgregor Sailing Canoe

This design is a MacGregor by Iain Oughtred. Named after the famous Scot John MacGregor of "A Thousand Miles in the Rob Roy Canoe" fame, this boat is a nod to the type of boat John MacGregor made famous in the late 19th century. LOA 13' 7"Beam 2' 7"Depth 11 3/4"Weight about 40 lbs.Sail Area: Single lug - 45 sq. ft. This canoe has been finished to a high standard and always turns heads where ever it goes. It is a fun boat to sail and is surprising stable with its wide beam.

The balanced lug sail is the traditional and ideal sail for this type of boat.

This is a very classic craft which is a rear find even on a global scale. Here is an article I wrote on the boat for www.duckworksmagazine.com which also includes a video of one of my many voyages.
