mylar sails
by Nebwest2＠aol.com 04 Dec '08

04 Dec '08

Jeff, My experience with the older mylar sails was the same. My M17 had a Mylar genny that shedded mylar like crazy. I don't know of a fix for it , but someone might. As for the rudder, mine is definitely symmetrical. I don't know why you would ever want an asymmetrical shape, but maybe there's a reason. Jerry??? By the way folks....for those wondering whose Montgomery 23 has been shown on the Event Calendar page of the last few SCA's (Pg 46 on this current edition), it belongs to Jeff and his lovely wife Chris. 'Jo and I had the pleasure of meeting them on their return trip to Washington State from picking "Clarity" up in Tucson, AZ where they purchased her. It was nostalgic for me to see Clarity as she is THE 23 that got me interested in Montgomerys some 20-25 years ago. She belonged to a good friend of mine, a Montgomery dealer, and I sailed on her many times dreaming of the day I might finally have my own. Clarity wasn't quite ready to be re-launched when they visited us, so we all jumped on Dauntless for a jaunt around the lake. I can't wait to see Clarity in person after all the work Jeff has done to her! Hopefully we will see each other in June for the San Juans/Gulf Islands cruise. **************Make your life easier with all your friends, email, and favorite sites in one place. Try it now.

Re: M_Boats: mylar sails

Hi Jeff, Your rudder sounds quite odd. To the best of my knowledge, my M23 stock rudder is symmetrical on either side. I have sanded and varnished it twice since I have owned the boat, so I'm quite sure I would have noticed an abnormality.

"missing" M23s

Brian, I know what you mean. Keep the faith! There's a couple out there somewhere. Someone is going to keep digging and come up with one! The internet shrinks the whole world. I know that the last couple of "finds" have been boats located by searching the web. Is you new book out yet? If so where can I get a copy and if not when is it expected?

East cruise for 2009
by Doug Kelch 04 Dec '08

04 Dec '08

Sea Frog asks "where/what is the North Channel 200??" The left coaster have a large fleet for the San Juans. I didn't get in a long cruise this year due to gas prices and other issues so..... Based on the economy I may have a lot of time to go cruising as long as I don't stop at a marina or restaurant :-) So lets get an east coast cruise on the books for next year. Interested parties drop me a note to get in on the planning details. The North Channel 200 as joke is a good choice. I like the smaller group cruises and are real North Channel 200 would be open to the public. The East Coast cruises are by invitation only. Mlist members and my private list (any Montgomery, Potter, Compac or other small cruiser who asks) are all invited. The prime candidate is two weeks in the North Channel, mid to late June again. This time I would like to hit the more eastern areas of the North Channel and Georgian Bay. Tod - would you put this plan together? Those great lakes cruising club guides you have are fantastic!! Other options are Flordia Keys in April Or Maine in the last week of August first week of September. Let's get one committed early so let me know. Once I get the responses from the list I will send a similar message out on my private East Coast list. Thanks Doug Kelch
