Joe, What a great looking M17 you have...... As far as your search for a live-aboard, are you looking for a monohull sailboat, cat, motorsailer, or a powerboat? I have thought when I get old and lazy and need more protection, a small motorsailer may work. I like the lines of the English made Fisher 25.
