I would give my eye teeth to see more of the first M23 Offshore Cutter from her owner, and to read sailing stories about her . . . ----- Original Message ----- From: Doug King To: For and about Montgomery Sailboats Sent: Thursday, October 23, 2003 1:02 AM Subject: New to List and welcome to all the new owners Dale, Bill's got it right; with March 75 being the date of manufacture. You can read all about it on the MSOG web site page, "Interpreting Your Hull Identification Number" (HIN) from the Specifications page at http://www.msog.org/specs/specs.cfm. By the way, a warm welcome to all of the new owners. I'm the guy who manages the Montgomery Sailboats Owners Group web site for the rest of the owners. The MSOG has a bunch of info you'll find useful, and I'm always looking for more. If you have a story about your first sail, whether good, bad, or embarrassing (embarrassing is always the most entertaining), email it to me at msog@msog.org . Or a few pictures of the newest boats would be nice. Those How-to projects and little extras that every new owner undertakes are always appreciated. Good project pictures with a little (or lots of) description are welcome. To any owners: What the MSOG really needs are some good pictures of the interior--for example: cabin, spce under the cockpit, under the V-berth, inside lockers, cockpit lockers, quarterberth, etc., with something in the shot for scale. M-15, M-17, and M-23 shots are all needed. Feel free to contact me first, chances are I can make the webification process as painless as possible for you. Once again, welcome; you now have something in common with a whole bunch of great people.
