Well, glad to hear you are enjoying life in Havasu. I am slowly getting things done, (bow and stern light mounts finished) When I get it going I would love to come visit, Thanks for the hospitality. Now get back to work. Gary O "We must not promise what we ought not, lest we be called on to perform what we cannot." -- Abraham Lincoln

You made me laugh, Gary......and yes, I suppose I am a "hozer". hahaha But... You know, if you were to get off you butt and drive the 3 hours up here and show me how the heck to finish this thing I'd get done a lot sooner!!! Free lodging (maybe food too), place to park your 17 (trailer only cause we'll have to put the boat in a slip) and a quick 5 minute jaunt to the boat when the wind blows..........Wait a minute.....your 17 better stay home or I'll never get anything done!! If it blows hard enough we can always hijack Jason's 17!(which has already cost me a few days of lost labor cause I just had to have a "fix" and it was too easy to drop everything and go).

Mike - I have the kind of M17 you're looking for - although mine slides up and down on a stainless steel rod rather than a bronze one. I've purchased (and received) an IdaSailor kick-up rudder, so have no need for the old one. You can have it for the shipping cost, and the old tiller too, if you want it. Send me your address (off list) and I'll try to figure out how to package it up. I'm located in Newport News, VA.

Does not need to be in great shape just fixable to use. I think this boat had a rudder that slides straight up on a long stainless pin and not the kick up type, I could be wrong. _______________________________________________ http://mailman.xmission.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/montgomery_boats ============================================================

Please differentiate between the M17 slide up rudder and older very fixed type, mc. Don't know when the change occurred (I bet somebody does) but probably in the mid/late 70s the rudder changed from a fixed, 3 point mount with no adjustment (because the rudder under-shot the skeg) to one that didn't undershoot and rode a bronze rod up about a foot. Sounds like you're referring to the rudder on a rod setup, but better clarify. I have an undershot rudder I might part with... t /)) Tom Smith & Jane VanWinkle M17/496 & M17/064 -----Original Message----- From: montgomery_boats-bounces+tsmith=nextit.com(a)mailman.xmission.com [mailto:montgomery_boats-bounces+tsmith=nextit.com@mailman.xmission.com] On Behalf Of mc Sent: Friday, March 03, 2006 12:10 PM To: montgomery_boats(a)mailman.xmission.com Subject: M_Boats: 17 rudder Does anyone have an Montgomery 17 old rudder that they would like to sell.
