That would make your M-17 hull number 265, built August 1977. -----Original Message----- From: montgomery_boats-bounces+tynerjr=md.metrocast.net@mailman.xmission.com [mailto:montgomery_boats-bounces+tynerjr=md.metrocast.net@mailman.xmissi on.com]On Behalf Of Arnold Sharpe Sent: Wednesday, June 13, 2007 8:25 PM To: For and about Montgomery Sailboats Subject: M_Boats: Hull Numbers Jerry, I recently bought a used M-17, a quite nice little yacht. I hear M boats identified by their Hull #. I can not find any place on my 17 that id's the Hull #, however I do find a # on the transom "MMP 172650877", can I get the Hull # from this #? I have spent the last 2 months with the boat "on the hard" getting it ready for the sailing season. I am impressed with the construction, keep up the good work.
