Jim, I don't have a M15 but I do have a M17 Bob had delivered to me last fall. I would be more than happy for you to take a look at it. While it is a bigger boat the quality of the workmanship is the same. There is nothing that I could find in a small boat that comes anywhere close to the quality of Bob's Montogomery baots. I am in Nashville TN which is a long way from Bob's shop in Calif as well but I would not hesitate to have Bob build me another boat. Regards Tony Bluebird M17 E.

Though I've been in touch with Bob Eeg via email and was told he would call me, I've yet to hear from him. Yesterday I made a trip to the North Carolina Com-Pac dealer and looked at a Com-pac Legacy in person. Seeing the boat and trailer in person lent a whole new dimension to my perception of the boat outside of simply reading about it, and frankly there were several things I didn't care much for and believe I'd find an M15 more to my liking. I owned a Nimble Kodiak (26 ft.) pilot-house for 10 years that I sailed in Alaska and Canada. Having lost that to a divorce 5 years ago, and being unable to afford another, I'm seriously looking to buy some small but extremely seaworthy sailboat that I can use now. I'm wondering if anyone here that has a Montgomery 15 would be willing to let me visit with them and see the boat in person? I live in Durham, North Carolina and am willing to drive a reasonable distance for that privilege. Thanks in advance to anyone that replies.
