hello all, I am not a Montgomery boat owner yet, but I am working at it. I frist saw the boat just sitting a dock. Love at first site, I thought it was beautiful. I really, really new at this. I am trying to purchase a used boat now and I am looking for help. I sent out an earlier email, but it was being held until my subscriber request was okayed. I do a lot of people powered boating sports. Kayaking, canoeing and rafting. I own a shop dedicated to paddle sports. Looking forward to learning more about sailing. paddle...Guy

I'd say if you are looking for help finding a Montgomery, you have come to the right place. You could start with the boats listed for sail on the MSOG website: http://msog.org/cfmods/M-boats4sail.cfm Some places like Yachtworld also have Montgomery boats and two of them look to be in the Northwest area. http://www.yachtworld.com/listing/yw_listing_detail.jsp?checked_boats=929868 &checked_boats=1019758&checked_boats=1000330&THREE_SEARCH_RESULTS=true&curre ncy=USD&units=Feet I notice that Irv does have the former "Whoa Nellie" back on the market. Wondering how the 4 hp 4 stroke Tohatsu worked for him? That is a motor I can get locally, and would be a strong candidate for me to consider when replacement time rolls around. Howard M17, #278
Howard, I have a Nissan 4 hp 4 stroke which I'm pretty sure is the same motor as the Tohatsu. It has both internal and external fuel tanks and runs beautifully. It has plenty of power and gets excellent fuel economy. One feature that I really like (but fortunately haven't used yet) is that the prop has a clutch on it instead of a shear pin. I think it's a perfect auxiliary power selection for the Montgomery 17.
