Hello Everybody, My name is Jeff. I live in sail in Phoenix AZ. I'm 2 days away from picking up my M-15 and I am excited. 1982 Hull #203. Mainly I have small boat experience and daysail w/ a Barnett 1400(which is for sale by the way, excellent shape, asking $1300). I had a 1996 West Wight Potter that I sailed w/ for 2 yrs. A great little boat, I enjoyed it very much. I picked a M-boat because I knew it was for sale at the Sailboat shop at the lake. I also hope I can sail slightly faster w/ the M-15 than w/ the Potter. I always came in last during races(my fault, probably not the boats). I just took my bareboat chartering course in Ca., so I hope to charter in the future but for now want a day sailer that can be handled easily on & off the water. I want to get my wife & 2 little boys out there sailing after I "break in" the boat for myself (debug). Does anyone have any thoughts on the following for the M-15. Bimini top? Which outboard, size & type shaft? Anchoring equipment & storage? Whats the Mast rake? Oars? Thoughts on putting reef points on the jib? Looking forward to hearing back from anyone. Thanks-JF
