If your trailer has a jack post, try lowering them front end and the stern will rise up some. If you have the trailer hooked to the tow vehicle that won't work. Bill

Ok...I think I have to keep it off until it's in. I'm going to try a driveway rig in the next day or two since I've never rigged it myself, then I'm going to bundle up amd go for it! I'll keep you posted!

Hello All! I recently purchased an M17, and of course have been lurking and learning all along. The boat was originally "Selkie" and the next owner re-named it "El Nino". My name is Ivan and I currently live in Gig Harbor, WA and am fairly new to sailing. I bought an older Snipe two summers ago and taught myself how to sail on that. I would love to get in contact with anyone nearby that is knowledgeable regarding M17 or 15s to perhaps come by for a looksie.
I look forward to getting to know you all better, and now for the best part of introduction posts.... PICS! Note "Selkie's" custom dodger as featured in Small Craft Advisor #64, 2010..... SWEET!
