Hi Andrei, i haven't been reading the previous posts but i can rig my M17 in less than 30 minutes by myself. And i can single hand her rather easily and i am not even an "old salt" ... but i am old (51). I would guess i could rig her on my own for at least the next five years (if i keep her... i am seriously thinking of parting with her... first $4500 takes her ... Sacramento area... sorry about the impromptu sales pitch). Jeff M17 Hull #336

I would have liked to be on the water in 20-30 minutes, alone. Is the M-15 better in this respect? And, perhaps more importantly, how can one find a good condition M-15 in the midwest? (I am in Wisconsin, but I am willing to travel within 250 miles of here.) Thanks, Andrei. _______________________________________________ http://mailman.xmission.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/montgomery_boats _______________________________________________ http://mailman.xmission.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/montgomery_boats
