Pre 1987 M17 Owners

I understand that pre 87 boats had a cast iron Center Board and iron shot ballast. I would be interested in hearing from existing owners about any problems they have encountered due to iron with the potential for rusting and causing binding problems.

The 17's I have located are both fresh water boats an 82 and a 76

Thank you for the prior response on 15 Vs 17
