Steve - As Dave mentioned, the Pocket Yacht Palooza will be Saturday, July 22, followed by the three-day Palooza Crooza foe small boats (July 23-25). For details, and to see lots of photos from past Paloozas, check the Port Townsend Pocket Yachters website, www.pocketyachters.com We hope to see several Montys at this year's show and cruise! - Marty On May 10, 2017 11:00 AM, <montgomery_boats-request(a)mailman.xmission.com> wrote: > Send montgomery_boats mailing list submissions to > montgomery_boats(a)mailman.xmission.com > > To subscribe or unsubscribe via the World Wide Web, visit > https://mailman.xmission.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/ > montgomery_boats > > or, via email, send a message with subject or body 'help' to > montgomery_boats-request(a)mailman.xmission.com > > You can reach the person managing the list at > montgomery_boats-owner(a)mailman.xmission.com > > When replying, please edit your Subject line so it is more specific > than "Re: Contents of montgomery_boats digest..." > > > Today's Topics: > > 1.

Intentional Capsize for M15
by Blair Ashworth 10 May '17

10 May '17

Hi M sailors, I've been watching a few videos about the SCAMP, which is a small wooden boat designed by John Welsford. Seems to be a very stable boat and they did an interesting Intentional Capsize with the boat to judge stability, safety, and self-rescue. I'm sure many of you may have seen the short videos - if not, here are a couple links for reference. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=du9lvJNVqnk https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wRZNWAkdkXM My question as an M15 owner is if this type of test or intentional capsize and recovery has been done on an M15 or M17 or similar boats? I would suspect it would be much harder to intentionally capsize an M17, but an M15 seems like this test could be done. I come from a dinghy sailing background where capsizes are part of the experience and sure adds to your confidence when you know what will happen in a capsize and that you can recover as needed. So that is what got me thinking along these lines. I know I've read that capsizes and knockdowns are very rare for M15s but thought this may be a good summer time type of test/experiment. If not done intentionally, any stories of capsizes and recovery out there? I read the one on msog.org, but hadn't heard of any others. That link for reference is: http://msog.org/how-to/how-to_flotjet.cfm#knockdown Thanks for any insights. Blair M15 #126

Interesting M17 for sail in Maine

No affiliation but thought some might find this interesting (a) because Montys are very rare here in New England, and (b) it has been converted to a gunter rig. https://maine.craigslist.org/boa/6101503481.html

Honda 2.3 hp outboard owners - 2015 model any different than 2016 or 2017?
by John Schinnerer 03 May '17

03 May '17

For those of you that have or had a Honda 2.3 hp in recent years - does anyone know if there are any significant differences between a 2015 year model and the current year model? I can get a brand new 2015 year model (NOS) for about $250 less than a 2017...just wondering if any improvements last year or two that would be worth the difference. thanks, John S. -- John Schinnerer - M.A., Whole Systems Design -------------------------------------------- - Eco-Living - Whole Systems Design Services People - Place - Learning - Integration john(a)eco-living.net - 510.982.1334 http://eco-living.net http://sociocracyconsulting.com
