Hello, I just wanted to let you know that I bought my M15 new without ever having seen one or sailed one. I did sail a West Wright Potter 15 and decided it wasn't the boat for me. The M15 handles like a much larger boat. I've owned it now going on 14 years and love her as much as when I first got her. She will give you so many wonderful memories! When I can no longer get out of bed my M15 is going to my oldest daughter and grandchildren, whom I'm teaching how to sail. My two cents worth.
