Bones, So good to hear from you. Yes, I am really interested in the M17. Don't get me wrong. I love my NorSea. But with all this skinny water and so many great places to gunk around, it's time to look for a smaller draft. Plus, my mate can't sail anymore and after 40 years, it just isn't in me to say, "See ya in a few months..." So now I'm just asking a million questions about the M17 since seeing a few of them a few years ago.

I have never tried it, and my body has a narrow beam! I have that place reserved for my cooler and big box of dry goods when out for a week's sail. I think a youngster would be OK. I don't fit that category! I want you to have a M17. Bones _____________________________________________________________ Become a Graphic Designer and earn up to $150/ hour.
