Hi all, Some of you will recall I was poised to buy a new M-15, when Tipperary" my M-17 came up for sale. Since purchase, I've been unable with time, confidence or crew to launch her in the San Francisco Bay. On days that the wind would co-operate (5-15 knots) I had no time. On days where I had lots of time the wind was just to strong and intimidating (15 -25 knots) for a new boat sailor. Be that as it may, I've decided to get used to her OR get rid of her. So now, I'm on a quest. Beginning tomorrow, I'm off to go sailing. I'll be sticking to lakes in Northern California, Oregon and possibly Washington and gone until the middle of July. By then I'll either keep my M-17 or she'll be for sale or trade for a nice M-15. Bill M-17 "Tipperary"
