Didn't know you were offering t-shirts now, Bob! ----- Original Message ----- From: "Holly" <bobeeg@earthlink.net> To: <Montgomery_Boats@mailman.xmission.com> Cc: <montgomeryboats@hotmail.com> Sent: Thursday, October 07, 2004 8:29 PM Subject: Montgomery 15 myths and other news The Montgomery 15 is not a scaled down 17. It was designed from the ground up by Jerry Montgomery. I wonder who told you that story? :-) Notice on our new T _shirts we have both boats in profile (in color) and credit is given to both Jerry and lyle as the designers. (designed by Jerry Montgomery------designed by Lyle C. Hess) Just to keep the story straight. Many people wrongly assume Lyle designed Jerry's M_15. BTW I have another new M_17 in stock, this one has the standard windows and will be finished in a few days. (some options can be added) These are 2005 model boats. We spent the summer and fall building a BUNCH of M_17s with the round bronze ports. The next round bronze ported M_17 is going to Texas. Name is SOPHIE ROSE, for Jim and Sylvia. Also have another new M_15 that will be finished shortly. This boat has a GREEN hull. The next M_15 is going to Gilbert, Arizona. (Ivory hull) for Jim and Diane. These are 2005 model boats. Also just finished an all GREEN hulled Montgomery 7-11, rowing model. (I did install the mast teak support cross member for future sailing options, the seats are also green; how do you say ivory in spanish??. She looks neat with the teakwood on her interior.) Also have a new IVORY hulled Montgomery 7-11 rowing model in stock. (this also has the teak cross member for future sailing options) Also have two new Montgomery 6-8 rowing prams in stock. Both have dual oarlocks for rowing from either position. (both Ivory) We did sell the M_23 (green hulled as well) that we were molding. Installing ballast and interior now. Come by for a visit when we get her on the floor. Email me off the board for details. My netscape 7 is still locked ? Using my daughters return address.
