He recounted in great detail: the food supplies that they carried (he and his wife); cooking equipment that they used and comments about its suitability and improvements "next time". He discussed all the questions that you raised. From my recollection, it was quite a long and very detailed report on living aboard an M-15 for three (or possibly more) weeks without resupply possibilities. I recall him talking about having to find springs to replenish their water supply in some of the small coves and harbors they visited. Fish provided fresh meat on a daily basis. If you can't find the report in the Archives, then possibly someone in the Montgomery group saved it, and could send you a copy. Connie
How many days were you out and about, self-support?
Can you give us an outline of how you set yourselves up for that length , of time for two people on a quite small boat? Food, water, toilet, etc.?
thanks, John S.

Hi David,
What a great video.
You sure know how to make a boat-less old geezer jealous.

I finally finished a video of a trip we took to the Sea of Cortez with our Montgomery 15 and posted it on YouTube: Sailing Bahia de los Angeles on Sea of Cortez

Jerry Montgomery first brought the idea to my attention about a year ago on this group. It was a great trip! We're taking the boat to the Great Slave Lake in the Northwest Territories of Canada in July...
