Dear soon-to-be Montgomery owner. Run, do not walk. Get this M-15 I you really do want it. This boat looks very nice. You will hate yourself if you miss getting this one. I would buy it if I was not in the middle of restoring my old hull # 189 with lots more years on it. I have spent a grand just restoring the neglected trailer. My Monty 15 was cheap but the costs of restoring have passed $4450. Best of luck beating out the other buyers out there looking at this same ad. ----L.
