I really appreciate it, Gordon! I might have an email posting archived that gives me the height of the M17 mast, but I don't have time to look for it tonight . . . I'll try to dig it up tomorrow if no one else on the list comes up with the answer. Thanks again!!! --Craig ----- Original Message ----- From: "Gordon Allgrove" <gordonallgrove@mindspring.com> To: "For and about Montgomery Sailboats" <montgomery_boats@mailman.xmission.com> Sent: Wednesday, February 25, 2004 11:48 PM Subject: how 'bout this drawing, gordon? Craig, The link worked, Thanks. It looks feasible, except here too I'll need to know the exact length of the mast (21 feet?) so I get the proportions right. I don't see that measurement on the M17 pages, yet. I'll also look at photos of the M17 to make sure the sails and rigging are drawn correctly (no gaff rigs, right?). It'll just take a little longer than the other photo with everything shown already. I'm going to check on my light table again to see if I can speed up the process (I'm allowed to be a little lazy). After looking more at the M15, it 'looks like' the mast is about 19 feet long. Can anyone on the list confirm that? (Bob Eeg, or Jerry can jump in here if they have a moment). As for your other email, I can scan in the drawing after I've puttered a while. fyi- While I was going to Art School, we were 'required' to do a drawing a day and this sounds like a good motivating reason to get back to practicing, even if the drawings don't go on a shirt.

Gordon,
Would you be able to take the outline at this link (just left-click on it
once to go to the pic):
http://www.msog.org/models/m17/Ogpg3.m17.cfm
And turn it into something resembling an M17 lines drawing?
Thanks,
Craig

I think that Steve's Wife might be the best for helping us with her computer Graphics & design skills,
However, if someone has photos or sketchy line drawings (including Bob or Jerry), where I might help make them better with pen & Ink, for the line drawings, I'd be glad to find the time to help 'polish' a line drawing (or two). I might even be able to 'draw in' (or copy paste) the various line drawings (for all the sizes) onto one sheet of paper. I have various pads of drawing paper and at least a few 'scribble' tools here to work with already. It may not be right away (we're doing a house remodel), but I do enjoy drawing. fyi,
Gordon Coba'

How about a series of line drawings starting with the dink and up through the M23, like in a parade. I got the following M-15 from the MSOG website.
