We have a manufacturing plant 4 miles from Montgomery Boats. I asked our VP of manufacturing (who happens to be a sailor) to stop by and check out the boat, which was somewhat backwards since that was after I had already bought it. He said there were some really nice boats there, but the only boat he specifically mentioned was a M17 he thought I should have bought ("hell of a boat for the money"). However I don't believe the owner, in Ohio I believe, would be too happy about that. I do believe that boat is going to be brought East by Troy Kennedy, who bring my boat in Indiana. Perhaps I could get Troy to stop here and rest for a few days on the way through....I'm just concerned for Troy's safety. Of course I may have to take the M17 out for a quick sail, just to ensure it made the trip OK. On 11/4/06 11:23 PM, "bownez@juno.com" <bownez@juno.com> wrote:

Joe,

Looking at the pictures I could not help but notice the green lapstrake hull of the boat behind yours. Is that an Offshore M23 hull #2 by chance?

The black hull of your M15 is quite beautiful, and different!
