Hi George, After swallowing the anchor, let me tell you that that isn't the end of sailing for you. My Admirable reports that when she reached the Pearly Gates, St. Peter was waiting for her and after welcoming her with a Kir Royale, presented the Admirable with a fully equipped and provisioned M15 for sailing the Elysian Seas. He told her when, and where the M-sailors met for Happy Hours, and explained that from now on all sailing trips to new interesting destinations would be on broad reaches; the weather was no longer something you had to worry about, since at the Elysian Sea sailing areas, the weather was designed for a sailor's maximum enjoyment. Also, you could anchor anywhere, and your anchor would never drag, this, after all is now Heaven! St.Peter even had the M-15 wine cellar stocked with your favorite wines, and the beer was at the proper temperature. I have found that you can still do a lot of sailing via interesting YouTube sailing videos. See: - RAN Sailing: Swedish couple that sailed from Malmo to the Caribbean; to Hawaii; to Alaska, and then down the inside passage. - Sailing Magic Carpet: Canadian / Swiss couple rebuilding a totaled 28-footer; going to the Med via French Canals and then sailing in the Med. - ...and Sailing Project Atticus if you would like to sail across the Atlantic, and visit Bermuda, the Azores, and they are now in Portugal; heading for Malta. Happy screen sailing, Ciao, Connie On 10/27/2022 1:29 PM, Tyler Heerwagen via montgomery_boats wrote:

Having achieved 90yrs of age and sailed my M15, (Bucket List item), on the Rappahannock River this month out of Windmill Point, VA (Daughters home) I am ready to 'Swallow the Anchor'
I am putting my M15 up for sale. I have misplaced my Spec sheet and was wondering if I could get one of the list members to respond with the information.so I can list my M15. Need LOA, LWL,Width,Weight, Depth CB up & CB down, Sail Area, Mast height @ WL.
Will continue to lurk on the list now that I am an Armchair Sailor. Thanks for the many years of advice and information shared on the list .
