Hi Bob, Good to hear from you. "Rover" does look like a nice boat; I don't think the seller mentioned the year it was made. Being so relatively new and heavily equipt, it could be fairly priced. There was recently another M15, 2000's vintage asking about $12K, in Seattle. It sold fairly quickly there. Sorry for dissing Jim's listing. Good luck on selling your beautiful boat, Jim!

Probably a big expense was the stainless/sunbrella bimini and I heard he had some custom sail covers made as well. We did set the boat up for singlehanding and he also has a CDI furler on the headstay. The boat is loaded and well cared for.> > Our current M_15s and M_17s come Standard with the stainless adjustable motor mount, stainless folding boarding (swim) ladder, Bow pulpit, etc.> > With a new motor and a boat full of gear he probably feels his M_15 is a good buy. More than likely he will sell it in the 14K range. You never know. His name is Jim and If I remember correctly he has a house on the beach with his boat out front.> > If anyone wants to see the boat, go to my website photo pages. (14 pages) His boat is on page 5 of 14.
