I posted some video from the Great South Bay Long Island cruise this past August. The video doesn't do the Great South Bay justice as the sailing was so good we were rarely sailing in company or it was to windy to video. There is not a lot of actual sailing but lots of raft ups and and launching shots. Part 1 proves that you can launch an M15 by hoisting it from a bridle from the chain plates to the stern cleats. Part 2 has some sailing but mostly is a raft up social event. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q7hpUimtpgI http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AZZSj2XSnJ8 These are posted under the youtube name dougkelch.
