Hi Jan

Glad to hear you have a Omega, I have one also, great little boat mines a '78, also have a Sunfish of indeterminate age, and a '76 M17.

Sometimes if i'm going to a place where I know there is little wind (most state parks for example) I'll take the Omega, it does well in light winds.

Regards

Wayne

We have one of those gas cans described below. It is wonderful! Never, ever spilled gas anymore! The only downside is that it doesn't work on cars, only on lawnmowers or other similar gas tanks.

Hi. We're new to the list ... own a 1974 Montgomery 17 that has been restored and has some improvements. I noted the item about filling tanks on small motors: Briggs and Stratton makes [or made] a one gallon can with a patented fill tube that shut off automatically when the receiving tank was full. No muss .. no fuss .. no bother. I think they are still available at good lawnmower shops etc.
