Hi Rick I just shipped a new M_17 to Red Bank, New Jersey....I will send you some photos direct. Is that close enough for your needs? You will find that the M_17 is twice as big inside, plenty of headroom and you can sleep in the cockpit no problem. Fair winds Bob www.montgomeryboats.com (949) 489-8227 Rick Langer wrote:
I want to thank Connie for a very thorough tour if his M15. Nice boat. Nice guy.
"Thanks Connie"
I was really impressed with amount of storage in Connie's boat. One thiing he did was to cut out the small cockpit locker which got him access to the very big space below and then hung the small (cut out) locker in this now very big locker. So now he has a locker within a locker. With all that storage space I didn't notice where the flotation was located. Is it up in the coamings?
After seeing this boat, I'm sold on a Montgomery. The M15 meets alot of my requirements with the exception of very limited sitting headroom and a cockpit just a little too short for me to lay down in. At 6' 180 #s, I'm not big but I worry that the M15 might be like trying to get into my wife's Nissan Sentra where I always hit either my head or my knees because the car is just not built for my size. Is anyone willing to show me thier M17 who lives within 200 miles or so of New York City? I live 60 miles up the Hudson River. It doesn't have to be an extensive tour. I just want to get some spacial reference and see what the overall size difference is compared to the M15.
Thanks,
Rick Langer
