Hi Ron, Wish I owned on right now... I'd be able to give you more info. I work from May through December and take the rest of the year off. I should be sailing but... No Boat! After I got real interested in the M-15 I Emailed Bob Eeg (Owner of Montgomery boats - www.montgomeryboats.com/) and asked him to send a couple of pics to keep me up on getting one. One of the pics is now a screen saver and another is printed out and on the Fridge. This year I'm anxious to get to work to buy the boat for next winter - Maybe I'll go south for the winter at least for a while. See if anyone on the group can offer a test ride somewhere in your area. I know after I get my new M-15, I'll be happy to show her off. Have fun in your search, Bill
