Irv; My M17 is 1976. I have had her about five years. Haven't made many modifications just normal upkeep. I did add a access port for the cockpit drain and redid the drain line, added an adjustable backstay, a mast raising system (for one man) and rebuilt parts of the trailer. Right now the centerboard is stuck and I need to remove and refinish it, or if Jerry gets new ones made I will go that route. I sail my boat in northern Ca including San Francisco Bay, Tomales Bay and local lakes. This boat is much more seaworthy that my 1976 Catalina 22 was.
