One of those boring places with coral reefs, turquoise waters, and rainforests.? Sticking around for 3 weeks will probably be miserable. -----Original Message----- From: Bob From California To: For and about Montgomery Sailboats Sent: Wed, 4 Jun 2008 11:20 am Subject: M_Boats: Wilhelm has landed...M_17 long range voyage... I received this email last night from Eva, Wilhelms sister: Wilhelm is on June 1th landed in Port Vila, Vanuatu, Melanesia and he feels good and he will stay there for 3 week because the weather is to bad to go in the Indian Ocean. Bob (949) 489-8227 www.montgomeryboats.com I have no idea where this is. Anyone know....?

We found an older Compac 16 that needed work, fixed it up over the winter and then sailed it the next summer. Even with new sails we just were not thrilled with its performance so we sold it. This past fall we bought a Monty 17 and the difference is like night and day when comparing it to the Compac. I had one of the older Compacs that did not have a center board or bowsprit, both of which I think would have made a difference in performance.

Sean Mulligan has set up an owners registry at YaHoo groups. You'll need to become a member of the group (set up password and user name). The list is yet new but may have a listing in your area.
