Cal,
Welcome aboard! The Montgomery is about as good as it gets in a 15-17 foot sailboat. The Flick 20' was designed by Bruce Bingham and is the biggest little cruiser I've ever seen. It is a full keel, full standing headroom, go anywhere 5,000 pound pocket cruiser built by Pacific Seacraft. Although it is trailerable, I wouldn't want to pull it with anything smaller than a Mack truck. I watched the first Pacific Seacraft Flicka being removed from its mold. It was available at the Long Beach In The Water Boat Show in the late 70's for the introductory price of $10,000. But, of course, I couldn't afford it then either...

Thanks Joe. I have received quite an education on the Flicka since my remarks were posted. But I still have yet to see one up close, or, better yet sail on one. They sound like wonderful boats. -- Cal Spooner M15 #402 spoon@visi.com cspooner@mn.rr.com 763.574.1482
