Dear Robbin, Thanks very much for the encouragement! And I'll have to get up to speed on the MSOG band. Dave On Sep 29, 2011, at 8:29 AM, robbin roddewig wrote:
Welcome David, the M-15 is a sweet boat. The good thing about the center board (silver lining view) is that the 15 center board is pretty light and manageable. I had mine out of my 1980(?) M-15 and it is fairly light. Once you get it out. You can see some of the info on center boards on the montgomery photo site and MSOG (not the band).

Hello all,
I'm excited to be the new owner of a 1984 Montgomery 15. I live in East Granby, CT and usually sail out of Guilford on Long Island Sound. I have yet to get out for a sail but am hoping to be able sometime in October. Does anyone know if 1984 M-15's have steel ballast in the keel, and whether the centerboard is fiberglass. Mine is well and truly stuck in the up position despite a couple sessions of doing everything I could think of to lower it, and I'd like to understand better what I'm up against.
Also, is it allowed to post a boat for sale in this group? (Not the M-15, but my last boat)
Thanks very much.
David Gilroy
