Dear Connie, Thank you, thank you, thank you! I'm just back from my vacation at the CT shore, and I was able to get in many good days of sailing on your old M-15. The only problem is that now I don't want to go back to working. Oh well. The boat is by far the best sailing boat I've ever owned. It tacks! I'm not used to a boat that easily does that. It's two feet shorter and two feet narrower in beam than my last one, and it sails through Long Island Sound chop like a much bigger boat. I felt very safe and stable in it in some pretty good gusts. I had the centerboard worked on at Cedar Island Marina and it's fine now. I'm having ideas of voyages…. One question: I've mastered the roller furling of the jib and can easily reef it down as needed, but I have yet to understand reefing the main by roller furling it. I can get it to roll at the bottom, but the top of the sail does not get the idea and the result is a twisted up main that does not draw well in big gusts. I'd appreciate any thoughts you have on this subject. One thought I have had since is that I never put in the vertical too-hickeys which I can't think of the name of, like slats that go in sleeves of the sail. Maybe they'd make a difference in how the sail would furl at the top. Your friend and happy sailor, David
