The owner of M-15 #117, the one offered for sale, said that he had not seen or had word of anyone in the islands with another Montgomery 15 or 17. He did say that he thought that the 15 was up to the task of regular day sailing in Hawaii but that the cost of freight on smaller boats often discouraged sales in the islands. Larry

Mann went on to serve as an officer on a tanker in Pacific service. The second owner was a college instructor in Honolulu who still owned the boat in the spring of 2000. My wife, Gemma, and I had a nice chat with him. He was surprised to meet a fellow M-15 owner and that we knew the story of his boat. The boat appeared to be in fine condition after years of exposure to tropical heat and sun. Larry Watson "Craig F. Honshell" wrote: You beat me to it, Tod ...
