Great story, Ted, and welcome to the Montgomery community. I sail the Potomac River near DC in my M17, and have loved every minute, rain or shine, for five great years, and hopefully for many more, although I'm closer (I think from the far side) to Jerry Montgomery's generation than to yours.

I have my M23 at Pepin Marina, slip F-21.There are only two "wrinkle" boats in the whole marina, mine and a NorSea 27.I'd be pleased to meet you sometime.
