Rob, I was at Brown's Ravine launch site last weekend taking pictures of the M-15 in the parking lot rigging for my M-15. I want to duplicate the jib downhaul and halyard lines back to the cockpit. I also have the same trailer but my rig is older. Got mine cleaned up over a 3 year period. It came from the desert down by Edward AFB. It was used but not much cared for. The trailer was the worst of it. The hull was mostly cosmetic work. The center board was another matter. I had to replace the old cb which had to be removed by a professional. I got a new cb by Bob Eeg and had it put in. I love the tippy feel !!!

I own and sail (or at least try to) a C-15. It is a fun boat, but the wife hates the tippy feel to the boat, and am having problems finding crew at times. Saw a Montgomery 15 parked by the lake, and since been doing research. Have heard a lot of good things about the boat. I did find one for sale, but it is listed as a Montgomery 15 Guppy. Looking at the pictures, it appears to have a smooth hull, not a lapstrake hull. It is definetly not a Guppy 13, and looks to have a retractable keel. My main question is, could this be a true Montgomery 15 or is could it be something else? The owner does not know much about it. Any advice is sincerely appreciated. Thanks- Rob _______________________________________________ http://mailman.xmission.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/montgomery_boats _______________________________________________ http://mailman.xmission.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/montgomery_boats
