M_Boats: A Superior boat

I just returned from four-day trip in the Apostle Islands, and I just have to say how pleased I am at how well my M-17 performed. It's amazing how stable Sapphire was fully loaded with camping gear, food, water, beer, steaks, brats, me and my 270-pound nephew, etc., even in stronger winds. Bones, a guy named John who says he sold you your M-17 sends his regards. He's a skipper for hire who was taking a group of 14-year- old boys through the islands on a Tartan 37. We saw him at both Stockton and Rocky islands. John, along with several other nice folks we met on the trip, had lots of nice things to say about the boat. Looking forward to the Montys Apostle cruise next month! Gordon M-17 #377 "Sapphire" Milwaukee
