Hi All: After Larry Hughston’s kindly-worded post, perhaps it’s time I introduce myself. After buying an M12 and converting it to a tanbark gaff sloop (“Mojo”; Havasu vet ’12 & ’13) and buying a Gunter-rigged 1969 Potter 14 ("Hobbes"; Mexico vet with Paul Bear and his M17 Pequeña, Florida vet with Dan Phy and his restored 12’ Pelican, and the recent Cruiser Challenge, dead last but rescuing the capsized P15) I decided to buy Larry’s M15 “Old 189”. I’ve renamed her “At Last” (the Etta James song) for my wonderful girlfriend. My first outing later this month will be Puget Sound with Dan Phy and The Usual Suspects with many more to come. Lastly, a warm thanks to Monty sailing friends, old and new! Fair winds to all, John Chille M12 Mojo P14 Hobbes M15 At Last Ventura, CA PS: A friend spotted an M15 here at the launch ramp on Tuesday. If you know them I’d like to meet them.
Welcome John! Nice talking to you yesterday about the good old days! Have fun with Dan and the other Miscreants he associates with.............Puget Sound will be fun. Bob Sent from my iPad

John, take pictures at your Puget Sound event. Fair Winds John....Thanks again for putting Old 189 to good use. Now get those rails wet....and put some ballast in the nose to counter the engine weight. ----- Larry Hughston -----Original Message----- From: montgomery_boats [mailto:montgomery_boats-bounces@mailman.xmission.com] On Behalf Of Bob Eeg Sent: Thursday, August 07, 2014 6:38 AM To: John; For and about Montgomery Sailboats Subject: Re: M_Boats: An Introduction Welcome John!

John: Enjoy Puget and the Salish Sea. If you go to the San Juan Islands, get the Current Atlas and the Washburn Tables so you can plan for the tidal currents. Have a great time! ~~~_/)~~~ Gary Hyde, M17 "Hydeaway2" Sent from my iPhone :-)

John, When do you plan to sail Puget Sound? What part of the Sound?
