M23 for sale (maybe!)

Hey Sandy, I hope you understand but I'm gonna kind of keep my cards close on this one. It's not a Monty, unfortunately, but it's a very nice boat. It'll do what we'd need it to do if we end up with it...and if not...no big deal. As Ron Pointed out, we know the benefits of trailerability and you can rest assured we could and would be still trailering. The likelihood of selling Dauntless is slim at best, but we figured "what the heck, let's throw it out there and see what happens." On another note....Looks like we're gonna try to get two Havasu sailing get-togethers going for this fall/winter, one in October and one in November. Love to have you come on over and join us. I'll be sure to post some dates as we get them figured out. That goes for anyone else as well!

It is with a lot of hesitation that I post this and I hope that I won't be hammered too hard! Jo and I have been extending our sailing trips more and more and have from time to time discussed up-sizing to make extended stays on the boat more comfortable. These discussions were always based on doing this move a ways in the future. Keeping that in mind, we recently became aware of a potential deal on vessel that we had identified as a possible candidate to suite those needs/desires in the future. It seems that the current economic situation of the country has landed many a boat at brokerages or in the classifieds as folks cut the discretionary spending to tighten their belts. It's a buyers market for sure. It's a great deal and it won't be there for long before someone snatches it up. Even with it being a great deal, it's a financial s-t-r-e-t-c-h for us and could only be made to happen if we liquidate Dauntless and do so for top dollar. Maybe even top dollar and then some. Working in our favor, of course, is that the 23 is a rare bird and there may, remember I said may, be someone out there that has identified the M23 as the boat that they have to have. Also working in our favor is that it really doesn't matter if we sell her or not. We are very happy with her, had no plans to sell her, and will gladly keep and sail her should this particular deal pass us by. So, with that....Dauntless is for sale. She will remain for sale only until the window to move on this other opportunity passes us by. I would appreciate it if you would consider the above comments before posting how crazy I am with my asking price. The price is what we would need to move into the next deal. I realize it's high...you may think it's very high and I'm not offended by that. It's just what I would have to have to make it happen and you never know till you ask. So the asking price for M23 Dauntless $37,500 and it is non-negotiable. I expect that Dauntless will remain ours for a long time to come. If you are interested in more information on her you can go to this link to a "for sale" webpage that will give you the details of the boat: _http://havasumontgomerys.piczo.com/1979m23dauntless?cr=1_ (http://havasumontgomerys.piczo.com/1979m23dauntless?cr=1) (http://www.havasumontgomerys,piczo.com) Do I feel like a greedy traitor??? well, yes kindof.....what's the other boat....well, it's not a Monty..tell ya if we get it!

Fw: [NorSea27] LYLE HESS RENDEZVOUZ in Maine
by bownez＠juno.com 30 Jul '08

30 Jul '08

Dear Monty Sailors on the East coast: Ben Ericksen posted this to the NorSea board, and I'm sure any wandering M-boaters would be welcome to participate. Ben had a long running web site called "Living Aboard a NorSea". FYI. Bones The BCC boys have been talking about a get-to-gether in Maine this summer, actually looks like Mid August might be the time. I'll be sailing up on Teresa's Nor'sea, Daphne, since my BCC isn't ready. We're headed up for my friends wedding near Bar Harbor. Wondered if any Nor'seas would be in Maine this summer and wanting to meet up. Wedding is Aug 16th. So right after that would be my time window. ____________________________________________________________ Free information on the best Web Hosting.

SO CAL Shaker AMY M17 OK
by Mark Escovedo 29 Jul '08

29 Jul '08

Hello Folks, We had a pretty good little Quake here today, it was reported to be a 5.8 . It rolled and rocked the house for about 20 seconds. The dogs heard it coming before we did. I live about six miles inland from Marina Del Rey, well away from the epicenter in Chino Hills, but other than the shacking it seems everything in this general area is OK. Can't make any cellphone calls right now but I'm sure that will clear up soon. Mark Escovedo M17F/D #103 AMY Checking in :)

M-17 FURLING HEADSAIL
by Bruce Ward 29 Jul '08

29 Jul '08

Greetings, I have a Schaefer CF 500 snap furler on my 135% head- sail. It takes a number 5 luff tape sewn onto the sail and the whole unit snaps over top the existing head-stay without any modifications. It works flawlessly for me. I also have a foam luff sewn in to assist with proper reeefing. You can research the specs on the net or view at west marine. Bruce, s/v cerulea M17 32
