It would be interesting to see how one of your newer deep keel boats stacks up
against my fin keel M17 (#14) with the cast iron fin with bulb. I know that
when my brother owned the boat we would walk away from the keel/CB montgomerys
to windward. "Griselda" also appears to heel less than her shallow draft
counterparts. Being one of the first M17s, Griselda is as Lyle Hess designed
her.
