Hey Don, I'd definitely appreciate a launching checklist! I went over the mast stepping procedure the other day...right now I still need two people but I'd like to find a way to do it myself. So I'm graduate student (studying the ocean) at Rutgers U. I'll be sailing mostly by myself in the waters near NJ. I plan to stay on lakes for the rest of this season and start coastal sailing next year. I also look forward to do some trailor sailing in New England since that's where I started sailing initially. But I need to do some equipment shopping first...chart, compass, gps. I'm curious do you have an electric setup on your M15? I don't have one and I'm debating whether it's worth the trouble to install one. Also do you install a permanent compass on your boat? Ah, I have too many questions. I'll save them for another time. Cheers, Donglai M-15 #612 to be named soon... On 9/6/06, LUDLOWD2@aol.com <LUDLOWD2@aol.com> wrote:
