I sail in Biscayne Bay, in my opinion the best area in South florida. But that is not an afternoon's sail from Palm Beach. I don't know Palm Beach other than the intracoastal. I bought my last big boat, a Nonsuch 30, in Jupiter and sailed her down on the outside from Lake Worth inlet to Ft.Lauderdale. Since the M15 is so easy to set up, you may want to make a weekend of it and trailer her down here. On Mar 4, 2009, at 7:55 PM, Chris and Julie wrote:
We are in the West Palm area. I am looking for some good places to trailer to that are relatively close. Any suggestions?

Congratulations on your M15. It's nice to know there's another one in South Florida! Where are you located? On Mar 3, 2009, at 9:17 PM, Chris and Julie wrote:
We just received our new M15 #653 "Julie Suzanne" yesterday. The boat and the trailer were loaded onto another trailer and towed all the way from California to South Florida. We are so excited to have our new boat!
Havent had much time to go over her yet due to work obligations, but she sure looks great for our first impressions. She just looks like such a salty little cruiser. The missus and I were totally shocked at how big the boat feels, so much larger than the 15 feet she is. We both couldnt believe the size of the v- berth. It will be very easy for the both of us to overnight on her.
She fits pretty nicely in our one car garage. Had to take the mast off to get her in, but that was expected due to our low clearance height.
I want to say thanks to everyone on here again who posted before when we asked questions about fitting her out and making her even more comfortable. I kept all the posts and have been saving others since then. They will all be useful as we get her ready for day sailing and 2-3 day cruises.
I will post some pics on the trailer sailor bulletin board that Bob took of her in California as she was loaded. Will get some too myself when I get a moment away from work.
