Craig --

I can't speak for all M15s, but on mine, you could change 
the centerboard pendant without removing the cb 
completely.  If you lower it all the way (gently)you can 
get at the attachment point while it's still in the 
trunk.

Unless it's pretty new already, I'd definitely replace 
the line if you've got the board out anyway.  What've you 
got to lose?  I've got 1/4-inch nylon braid on mine.
