The Rob Roy is a beautiful boat. Bronze ports, yawl rig, finished interior . . . Several months ago, a small Midwest magazine, Northern Breezes, advertised one for sale for $7,000! ----- Original Message ----- From: "Smitty" <smith845@wcsonline.net> To: <montgomery_boats@mailman.xmission.com> Sent: Monday, July 29, 2002 1:36 AM Subject: Long M17 Cruise ? Hi Connie, I'm seriously considering the 17 and your comparisons make it look like the best boat for the $. I also like the Rob Roy 23 by Marine Concepts, but it is pretty expensive ($27k for a like new boat) and weighs about 800 pounds more. Since I enjoy windsurfing any of the small boats are going to be a little crowed at times when a board and sails are wedged on/into the boat. Thanks, Smitty Windsurfers Do It Standing Up ! US-842
