Hi John, good to see see another land locked Virginian with an M-15. I am in Leesburg and picked up my 1981 M-15 earlier this summer in MD. I sail out of Breezy Point MD with my kids near Chesapeake Beach where the boat is kept on its trailer. I am sure you already know this but Sandy Point State Park has a fabulous facility for launching and Breezy Point where I am has a good ramp too that is available for a $8 launch fee. I have not been on the Potomac except kayaking (M-15's dont like class 3 rapids). Hope to see you out on the Bay and at the boat show!

Greetings

I'm John Roland and I've just bought a M-15. Hoping to meet other Montgomery owners and learn more about these great little boats. I found my boat on the MSOG website, offered by Bo Swartwout in Hyannis, MA. The boat was previously owned by a couple of peope in Texas and was named Lil Bit. I'm renaming it Wokini ( a Lakota word meaning new life or new beginning). If anyone knows something of the history of this boat I'd like to hear it. I live in Manassas VA (near Washington DC) and will be sailing in the Potomac River and in the Chesapeaake Bay area.
