Hi Don, You know if I was fortunate enough and talented enough to be able to reconstitute one of those M23's I probably would spend all of my time on the boat. However, for me the advantages of light, small and easily manageable are of importance. Besides, I still have a real passion for the Photo Site. Sorry to say, I've only verbally ordered the M15. Bob is backorderd in M15's and M17's and I'll be expecting my new boat for the summer. I'll be on my way to So Cal to work on the details in about a month. I'll be going with the stock Ivory color with either blue or green stripe and electrical. I've got other stuff already collected to add to the boat such as LED cabin lights, mast head light, CQR anchor, and more. But, that stuff will be installed and albums posted of those changes. I did have a name picked out until my daughter gave me a grandchild... now I'm leaning towards Celeste or Celestial or Star or Starstruck or something of that order. Then again I may join the group who hasn't got a name picked out. I read somewhere that we sailors spend a greater amount of time naming our boats than we do our children. The again there are some fortunate like Randy Graves and "Dinky" and "Not so Dinky" where the names just appeared (sort of). Bill www.MSOGPhotoSite.com Bill: I hate to think that then your boat arrives, you will spend all of your spare time sailing and not adding to your great photo site. What's the status of your M-15? Do you have it on order yet? If so, when is the anticipated delivery date? Are there going to be any special features to the boat? What color? What is her name?
