I had sent away for the plans and started building this model about 30

ago when I lived in the burbs and had a double car garage.
I built the keel and cutout the flat bottom before i gave up and bought a

Cool looking kit boat, and if done right and is pristine, that doesn't

You gonna end up building one, Don?


Na.... *wood boats are too much work when they get a bit old.
I'd love to see a Montgomery 15 up close. *it just might be the perfect boat

I want something small & light enough to haul behind the RAV4, yet safe
enough to hit the high seas on fine days and overnight in a far away cove..
It should be easy to rig/launch & sail singlehanded.


been there with a 1964 Chris Craft Cavalier. the a Mahogany was
coming unraveled faster than I could keep up with.
