My slip is located in the middle of SF Bay on Treasure Island.an area of the bay commonly known as "The Slot." A calm day here is when winds are blowing less than 20 kts. In spring and summer months, cold afternoon winds of 30+ kts direct from the Golden Gate are the norm. Armed with foul-weather gear, two reefs and outfitted with a terribly expen$ive dodger, the M17 should sail most comfortably in this part of the bay. But as Bob (M15 #208) mentioned, there are many pleasant (calm and temperate) fringe areas of the bay to sail and moor; All easily accessible.
I have not officially named M17 #644 (I'd like to see her first), but I am leaning on "Pony Engine." Cheers, Scott Simpson _______________________________________________ http://mailman.xmission.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/montgomery_boats
