OK gang, Here's what I have to offer for Monty T's and Sweatshirts. If you haven't seen the artwork you can check it out at www.havasumontgomery.funtigo.com . Look for the "T-shirt and Sweatshirt" link and click on it. Thanks to David Wood for designing the artwork and allowing us to use it. The shirts and sweats will be sold on a pre-paid basis. This allows me to get all your orders and then to order exactly the number of large, x-large, small, etc. I need to have a minimum order of 50 items to make this happen. If you email me with an order I will email you back with an invoice. You'll then print the invoice and send a check for the total amount. I will hold all the checks unitil 7-15-06. If I have a total of at least 50 items ordered and paid for by 7-15-06, I will then tell the t-shirt shop to go ahead and print the shirts. It will take about 2-3 weeks to get them and then I'll ship'em out. So I would expect to ship around the 1st week in August (depending on how fast the supplier gets them to me). If I do not have 50 "paid" items ordered by 7-15-06 I will either return your check to you or destroy it (your choice) and we'll have to forget the whole deal. 4 items are available: Regular T-shirt w/pocket for $16.00 Long Sleeve T-shirt w/pocket for $21.00 Heavy-weight Sweatshirt for $ 25.00 Zip-up (full length zipper) Hooded Sweatshirt for $45.00 Add $2.00/item for XXL All items are Ash Gray with a 5 color silk screen on the back and a 1 color silk screen of pocket logo on the front. The reason for the gray t-shirt is that the gray will work well with the colors of the silk screened image. If you wear a large, order a large. The T-shirts are made by Anvil and the sizes run pretty true. All items are pre-shrunk. Shipping will be UPS plus $2.50, just like the mugs and hats. E-mail me at Nebwest2@aol.com with questions or orders. I will get back with you within 48 hours. Please don't post orders or questions on the list so we don't tie it up. Feel free to add any Monty Hats or Monty Mugs to you orders if you haven't gotten yours yet. I am picking up a new order of hats on Monday and will have both in stock. OK guys/gals. The ball is in your court. Tell you what.....I'm gonna order 4 items for myself so now you guys only have to come up with 46! Sean
Hi Sean, For some reason, the link "www.havasumontgomery.funtigo.com" does not work. The funtigo web site says it doesn't exist. I'd like to see the artwork, and may be interested in an order. Is there another link, or will you send the pix? Thanks, Bob Ogburn M15 Vanilla
Yeah, it's me again... the average sailor that has never sailed anything but inland waters. I am on vacation this week and the only wind i can find is on the coast. The SF Bay intimidates me so i am considering Tomales Bay. My biggest fear? Anchoring at night and finding myself being pulled by the tides into the mighty Pacific... any mooring suggestions? Any anchoring tips? Any other tips?

Hi Jeff, As it happens I took my M15 out there this morning. It was cold and blowing 20 at 09:00 with predicted afternoon wind velocities to 35. Nobody went sailing, not even the big boys. That's pretty intimidating, too. If you do go, don't worry about being sucked into the Pacific. The prevailing winds will blow you southeast and unless you're around the entrance on an ebb tide, no worries. Mostly a sticky mud bottom, so no problem with anchoring either although you may swing 360 overnight on on a single anchor. I should have gone to Clear Lake. Maybe only a little less wind but a lot warmer. George Burmeyer "Haiku" 1986 M15 #385 Santa Rosa, CA On Jun 18, 2006, at 3:54 PM, Jeff Royce wrote:

George, Do you think Clear Lake would be a wise alternate choice this week? Are the winds predictably good? Are there good public beaches?

Hi Jeff, I'm afraid I can't help much with those particular questions. The times I've been to Clear Lake the winds have been anywhere from nonexistent to way too much and everything in between. I have not explored the entire lake: it is huge. What I know is that it is a good sailor's lake because of its size and you can anchor just about anywhere you want. It is so large that swells develop and it is not over-run by stinkpots and jet skis (at least not when I've been there). The lake is surrounded by private homes and businesses mostly. There is at least one state park (don't know if there is a beach). There are boat-in resorts and restaurants (like Konocti) and there are several small towns around its perimeter. The part I'm most familiar with is quite pretty (the Konocti arm). The worst: The lake belies its name: it is not clear. It has high levels of mercury. The best: good sailing. It could take all day to sail from one end to the other. Not a lot of motorboats. Good fishing: just don't eat them (see mercury levels above). All in all, I'd recommend it to anybody who sails. Hope this helps George On Jun 18, 2006, at 7:06 PM, Jeff Royce wrote:
