M-15 For Sale in Maryland
I am suffering acutely from a need to buy a bigger boat. But before I give in to that sinful impulse, I thought I'd see to it that my beloved "Chimpanzee" found a good home, rather than joining the huddled mob of boats in my backyard. The ad is pasted below: For Sale: 1988 Montgomery 15 Boat Name: "Chimpanzee" (M15 #412) Location: Annapolis, Maryland Seller: John C. harris Email: jazzyachts@aol.com Description: A much-cossetted Montgomery 15.
