Saturday Sail
by htmills＠bright.net 25 Jul '06

25 Jul '06

Had a nice little sail on Saturday with mostly pretty light winds until all of a sudden it picked up real nice to over 19 kts, gusting to over 23 kts. At the time, I was on a broad reach. I turned on the gps and woo-hoo! Fastest non-surfing speeds I've ever recorded! I sustained over 6 1/2 kts for quite a while and nearly hit 7 kts in small chop! Flying full main and working jib. Also encountered a Potter 19 (HMS 18) and I'm glad to report that Busca did me proud. I saw a Mac 26X, but we were sailing a parallel course for only a short distance. It sure looked like we were keeping up with it too! I'm gonna have to keep my eye out for one to try to sail with just to see how badly we fare. Tod M17 #408 BuscaBrisas

That Montgomery 12 on the site is beautiful. I am really searching for one somewhere near Florida. I originally found mine in a backyard but had to sell it when I went to school, dumb me. If anybody has a line on one in the south drop me a line at annamariaslim(a)yahoo.com --------------------------------- Do you Yahoo!? Get on board. You're invited to try the new Yahoo! Mail Beta.

M12

Bill Lamica More options 1:02 pm (0 minutes ago) Thanks to Don Haas, who alerted us to the posting, I went to see the M12 in West Salem, OR, listed on Craig's List. I called ahead (503) 559-8800 and spoke with Keith Harris getting easy directions to find his home. This boat is featured in the Photo Site at http://www.msogphotosite.com/M12Haris.html it is just as pretty in person as it appears on the site. While there I also got the opportunity to see his other boat, an Erickson 25 and also saw the line drawings and some of the parts for his new (old) dinghy a Nordic 10? Not sure it it was a ten or eleven footer. Anyway. it will be beautiful: She has a lapstrake hull with a full midsection (looks a little like a Fatty Knees) Two piece wooden mast, single piece ash boom. Leather wrapped oars (done by Keith) and gaff rigged. Keith does not expect the Nordic to sail as fast or as close to the wind as the M12, but it sure will be a handsome craft... very salty. Keith sails mostly in 10 knots or less. Preferring to scape every ounce of energy out of the wind to get hull speed rather than to fight the boat in heavier weather. The M12 has been a great craft for this as she performs hull speed in barely a puff. Keith mentioned once in a Western Oregon lake where he sailed through a group of canoeists at hull speed with them just staring and wondering where the motor was... sure wasn't much wind. Anyway... the point of this post is to let anyone know who may be interested in an M12. This is a decent deal. Keith is not stuck on his $1650.00. He wants that because of the obvious effort he has put into her. I considered her, thought twice about it (due to my bad neck) and decided it best to pass and let you all know what I saw. Go visit with Keith, he has an amazingly beautiful home. Especially if you like things that flower, grow, have to be fed or like the color green in the various shades only a large acreage farm can produce. After you see the M12, make him an offer. He knows it is close to the end of the buying season and would love to see the boat and trailer in someones care. Bill

Bob Becker and I were sailing a few week ago and and thought it might be fun to get the N. Cal Montgomery sailors together for sail. Is there any interest out there? Time and place to be determined based on interest and input from those participating. Joe Steffan
