This reminds me of a strategy proposed by David Beede of simplicityboats.com: Even one sheet boats look pretty big indoors. This one is a good candidate for the "Stealth Shelf Skiff" article I'm writing. The premise being a guy convinces his wife he's making one of those skiff shaped bookshelves so he can organize all those boat books he has strewn all over the house. However... in the dead of night - all those books and shelves get stacked on the floor and the skiff gets thrown in the back of the family wagon and off to a nearby lake. In the morning wife finds hubby sleeping in with an odd smile on his face and an unexplained puddle on the floor by the bookshelf..... -Tyler On Oct 14, 2013, at 6:18 AM, Ian Black wrote:
Where are you located Tom? The dinghy is a possibility if I can find a place to hide from my wife. Ian

M17 for sale. Sorry to piggy back on this post, but my M17 is for sale with an M7-11 dinghy and a brand new Tohatsu 6hp Sailpro outboard (unused) that comes with a transferable 5 year warranty. See Craigslist posting for San Francisco Bay Area. Tom

Looks like I'll soon be purchasing a Montgomery 15!
I made a deal with the previously discussed M15 in Salem Oregon, which is going to be a huge project. At a minimum I'll be needing new rigging, centerboard, and sails. I also plan on new interior cushions, and an electric trolling motor.
I'm looking forward to sailing with you guys, especially those in the Delta and San Francisco bay area as I'll be living in Davis in a few months. Still, I'll probably need a year of restoration work before you'll see me at any events!
