Mark, Those of us snowbound in the frozen North would love to armchair sail with pics of Montgomery group sails, should you have any to post to the MSOG site.

The stuff you stumbled on is just stuff as far as I can tell. The builder is very active and supportive on this board. I didn't buy my M17 new but there are others around that have. If I had the resources I would be ordering a new M23 from him right now. Buy the M17, you won't regret it. As for your other question, there are several Montgomeries in the Portland area. I'm in Roseburg but we would love to have another Oregon M-boater. Several of us keep our boats at Fern Ridge and group sails are always a possibility. Mark Dvorscak M17 #400 GRACE
