I sailed my M17 on Flathead lake in 1988 for 5 days. It is a very scenic
lake about 20 miles long (if failing memory serves) set in a basin surrounded
by
tall and beautiful mountains. There are some fairly shallows area but there
is just enough water to sail. The main part of the lake is very deep. There is
a Marina at the northern edge where we put in and sailed the length of the
lake south to the group of islands including No Horse island. Back then only
one of the islands had any development on them, and when we anchored in a small
cove a couple of BIG buck mule deer walked along the edge of the shore within
30 yards of us. The water is COLD so don't expect to swim in it, and be
careful, because the lake is set in a valley, storms can comin elevation that
the
sailing season is short. I think we were there in August and were very glad to
have sleeping bags at night. Hope this helps, let me know if you have any
particular questions and I'll try to answer them
