20+ years ago i sailed and rowed MANY miles in a minto. the minto (aka, rich passage minto and/or kent ranger minto) is about the same size and similar external look (different seating setups). a minto in good condition with NO sailing rigging will for for $1000-$1500 (reguardless of age). the sailing package adds another $500+. knowing jerry and his 'need for speed' i have no doubt the M10 is a great sailer ... and if a boat sails well it is likely to row well (the minto is a GREAT rowboat, tender, and sailer which is why it commands such a high price). there is a M10 near me here in kent, WA ... Jon Freeman is restoring one he found in 'rough condition'. i'm hoping he will allow viewing when he has finished the project. dave scobie M15 #288 - SCRED visit Scred's www-site: http://www.freewebs.com/m15-named-scred --- On Fri, 4/10/09, Bill Kaiser <whkaiser@gmail.com> wrote: I just bought a 1978 M10 in Phoenix the wood is good needs running rigging paid $550 hope that wasn't to much.
