While cruising through Colonial Beach, VA, Sunday, 7/10, in my new tow vehicle (2002 GMC Sierra, 4.8 V-8, think this will be adequate for an M-15?), encountered a Montgomery? (15, I believe, but not sure) at the town's public launch. "Gypsy Rose" had Florida registration and FL tags on the trailer. Owner wasn't in sight, so I jumped out to look at the hull number. That just confused things, as this hull number started with digits, not letters, and then ended with letters, so I assume it's a rather old boat in an old system. No paper and pen, and all I remember of the HIN is "383xx-xx71RMM". Anyone have any ideas? Boat also had the extruded aluminum toe-rail, did not have an outboard cut-out like older 17s, and, of course, a Montgomery's lapstrake hull. Did not examine further as I don't like to mess around other people's stuff. -- John Tyner M-15 "Chimpanzee" -----Original Message----- From: montgomery_boats-bounces+tynerjr=gmpexpress.net@mailman.xmission.com [mailto:montgomery_boats-bounces+tynerjr=gmpexpress.net@mailman.xmission .com]On Behalf Of jerry Sent: Sunday, July 10, 2005 7:54 PM To: For and about Montgomery Sailboats Subject: Re: M_Boats: New Tabernacle Dan- I wouldn't worry about 1/2" Jerry jerrymontgomery.org ----- Original Message ----- From: "Richard Lane" <rqlhgl@ieee.org> To: "For and about Montgomery Sailboats" <montgomery_boats@mailman.xmission.com> Sent: Sunday, July 10, 2005 2:51 PM Subject: Re: M_Boats: New Tabernacle

I am installing a new Dwyer mast tabernacle on a Montgomery 15. If I use the existing holes, it places the mast 1/2 inch forward of the original location. Does anybody know will this be a problem for balance eg weather helm or shroud length? Dan

It wil increase the mast rake a trifle which may be a good thing. Dick
