I store my m15 on a lift in Western New York. It was a used lift for a seadoo jet boat, and has just adjustable "v" supports at the front and back cross bar supports, rather than front to back boards. Right or wrong, it has worked well for me for two years. I am travelling, but can send you a picture in a couple days.

The kind gent informed me no such records are on file for an M 15, although he was certain such a cover had been produced previously. It will be a few weeks (months?) until I get my boat out of storage and rigged and be able to arrive at the correct measurements, and I was hoping to get a jump on ordering a cover before our short Midwest season. Any members had a good experience ordering a main sail cover, and possibly kept the measurements too? Any recommendations? What about prices paid for a Sunbrella/similar brand fabric mainsail cover? Boat Lift Modifications Sailing the M 15 on an inland shallow lake, I will have the benefit of keeping her on a boat lift set just off shore- in about three feet of water. The 1000 lb capacity Cantilever lift I will utilize previously was home to a fishing boat. I'll need to accommodate the keel/hull of my Monty with modifications to the current 2X4 bunks which are mounted upright on two cross supports. Any shallow lake sailors had experience with modifications of this sort? My intention is to use two "bunks" (one port, one starboard), replacing the 2X4's with four foot lengths of 2X8's up-righted and covered with indoor out door carpeting? Others done the same? Thank you for your comments, thoughts and experience. I appreciate this valuable and enjoyable resource.
