Dumb M15 Number Question
I bought my Montgomery 15 about a year and a half ago. On its transom is MMP153690686, which I think means it is a Montgomery 15, serial 369, built in June 1986. It came with red, white, and blue sails with the number 368 on them. When I managed to rip the old main about a year ago I bought new sails. When I did I couldn't figure out what numbers were right so didn't get any numbers on the new main. If I had, which should it have been, 369 (the serial number) or 368 (the old sail number)? Thanks in advance, because whenever I start thinking about this it bothers me! David Grah Bishop California
David, The sail number is suppose to match the boat number '369'. My only question is............is the '9' clearly visible or could it possibly be an '8'? Other then that, I can't explain the difference between the sail number and the boat number.

Your sail # should be 369, which is the same as the boat #. jerry ----- Original Message ----- From: "David Grah" <d_b_grah@yahoo.com> To: <montgomery_boats@mailman.xmission.com> Sent: Friday, March 18, 2011 6:23 PM Subject: M_Boats: Dumb M15 Number Question

David, My wife has a sailmaking shop, I'll build you a set of peel and stick #'s in trade for your 3 favorite fishing spots. Ok maybe 2.
