Hi, My name is Michael Mann and in 1982, I sailed the Montgomery 15, Little Breeze from CA to Hawaii. I see on the web site that she has been rescued by new owners in Hawaii and I would love to correspond with them. I am currently sailing on a container ship headed for Honolulu and would welcome the chance to make contact. Thanks for any info. Michael Mann
Welcome to the list Michael. It's nice to hear from a Montgomery legend. I sure hope someone can give you the contact information you need. Bill Day M-15, "Gee Whiz!" On Wed, Jan 27, 2010 at 6:17 PM, Michael Mann <mannatsea88@sbcglobal.net>wrote:

Well, it maybe Christmas-time before I get a chance to read it; work and school get in the way. But, I can say the print is larger than your typical soft-cover book's, which is good for my aging eyes. So, if Michael was 22 in '82, when he set out on the Pacific blue, then he and I are roughly the same age (55). Can't say I'd ever even seen a sailboat back then, except maybe a Sunfish or Hobie somewhere. ----- John Tyner M-15 # 412 "Chimpanzee" On 11/18/2015 2:50 PM, Thomas Buzzi wrote:
