Correct, Maria. And the magnet on the back of my beer bottle opener confirms the ballast is   not lead, so I'm assuming steel.

I should have pictures tomorrow. I figured I'd put up a page to some pictures of the Bermuda trip for a short while, but I think the web site should remain dedicated to M-boats. In this case, I invoke web master's prerogative. It is an awesome power which I shall try not to abuse too often.

Does anyone know the last year iron ballast was used in the 17?
Thanks
