The MacGregor 24 is an American trailerable sailboat that was designed by Roger MacGregor and first built in 1971.[1][2][3]
The design was built by the MacGregor Yacht Corporation in the United States, but it is now out of production.[1][3][4]
The MacGregor 24 is a small recreational keelboat, built predominantly of fiberglass, with wood trim. It has a fractional sloop, a raked stem, a vertical transom, a transom-hung rudder controlled by a tiller and a retractable centerboard type keel.

The boat has a draft of 5.00 ft (1.52 m) with the centreboard extended and 1.50 ft (0.46 m) with it retracted, allowing beaching or ground transportation on a trailer.[1][3]
The boat is normally fitted with a small outboard motor for docking and maneuvering.[1][3]
