Frank, what fun you're gonna have. In our three seasons with "Cat's Paw" (M15 #616) we've had some fantastic cruising in the North Channel and Georgian Bay of Lake Huron (your side of the line). 2004 launch was at Spanish, this year at Little Current. Our boat thrives in these waters...doesn't want to come home. I can provide details if you need em. Stan Froseth Duluth MN
Hello there I just ordered a new M15 for next spring.I found Bob to be very open to my ideas and changes to personalize the boat for me as well as very fair with prices.I have been sailing since 1977 and have owned MANY boats over the years...from a 15ft sirrocco,DS16 cuddy,17 ft siren,17ft suncat,18ft sandpiper,flicka 20(still own)21ft flushdeck,edel665,shark24,jenneau 25,Tanzer25,pearson Ariel(my favorite..still own),jenneau28,Alberg 29,and a beneteau331.I've both trailersailed(my favorite) and been offshore.Took the 331 from Charleston -down thru the Keys-to bimini-grand Bahama isl-Abacos and back.I plan to keep the Ariel at green turtle cay in the Abacos as a home base for it...winter sailing..and do my explorations here with the M15.My heart has always been with small boats. In this hectic world ,they represent peace and simplicity.Any thoughts on a M15..tips..must haves etc as well as great trailer cruising spots would be appreciated.I prefer less people-more scenery to busy locations. I'm based in Ontario Canada.Bob tells me another couple from London Ontario have also ordered one. Should make shipping east a lil cheaper.
