now a san juan adventure with jerry doing tests of an 'm16'! what a trip!!! when i was heading back towards anacortes (only a week off 'approved' by my boss) made a stop at friday harbor. one, of the many, folks stopping by the boat and saying, "is that a montgomery?1"; stated he owned from '97 to '00 a M17 bulb keel in hawaii. it was his belief the boat was sailed to hawaii before his ownership. he had many, exictedly told, stories to tell about sailing the boat toe-rail in the water and out-sailing many a larger boat. love your boats jerry. would be a great to meet you in person and sail. dave scobie M17 #375 - SWEET PEA visit SWEET PEA's www-site: http://www.m17-375.webs.com --- On Mon, 6/22/09, jerry <jerry@jerrymontgomery.org> wrote: You mean nobody got et by sharks? Amazing! I'm envious. With any luck, I'll have a new M-16 next year and join you. Don't want to wear out my sails for the Potter race, tho. jerry
