Hello, let me introduce you to me. I am a Wednesday night racer, I crew on a Pearson Triton. Great Skipper and crew. We have sailed all over San Francisco bay. I have had the opportunity to sail on a Schooner on the bay too. I am growing tired of sailing on OPBs. I am currently working on a Stevenson's Weekender. I can see that it is a great training boat but won't take me far. Size is a major issue. Right now I am down to the Catalina/Capri 18, Precision 18, and the Montgomery 17. Precision is on the East coast. I have seen a Catalina 18. I hope someone in the group can let me have a look at their M-17. I would like to hear from anyone that sails their Monty in S.F. bay. Thanks for you time, Ken.
Hi all, A new boat has come into my life (actually two boats) and I need to clear the docks. Up for sale is a 1976 M17. It is is good shape and is ready to sail. I was sailing it this summer. The boat is located in Austin, Texas. Here's the good and bad about the boat: Good: Sails are in good shape. It has the original main and jib. It also has a 155% (?) Genoa that I have raised but it looks good. The standing rigging is good. The running rigging is good except for the mainsheet which should be replaced soon. The Johnsom Sailmaster 6 hp outboard runs good and has an alternator. The boat includes anchor, rode, assorted lines, life jackets, etc. Includes boat trailer with new tires. Bad: The deck needs painting. The boat needs a bottom job if it will stay in the water or would be a good idea (no blistering on the hull). The teak needs attention. The hatch boards need work or replacing. There is a marine battery that I haven't checked yet. The tricolor on the mast needs new glass and may need some wiring work. I want to get $4000 for the boat. I plan on working on the boat this fall and winter at the same time I'm working on another boat. As I get work completed, the price will go up. This is your chance to get a good M17 for a good price. Allan
