Tony McGregor, Conor McGregor’s father, revealed that at one point, he almost sold off the 188. According to Irish Mirror he said, “To be honest with you, I was looking at another boat, and I did go to view one last year in France, but I was pipped to the post on that. I’m happy with the 188; I’m still getting great seasons out of it, I’m still getting great fun and great adventures on it.”
