Welcome Carol. Glad to hear that you are sailing your family boat again and making new memories with her. We are in Ontario and bought our M17 specially for Great Lakes sailing. Bill Wickett Makin' Time M17 #622 On 2013-07-24, at 12:34 PM, Carol Barber <carollynbarber@gmail.com> wrote:
Hi, my name is Carol and I grew up sailing a Montgomery 17 along the Gulf Coast of Tx with my dad. After he passed, the boat sat for nearly 15 years, but I'm proud to report that she has been resurected! Although I had not sailed in over 20 years, my husband and I have made it our mission to make her seaworthy and learn to sail her. We are in Michigan and we primarily stick to inland lakes, but look forward to gaining enough experience and confidence to tackle the Great Lakes! And what an amazing boat! We are overwhelmed by the compliments we get on her.
