Cool looking kit boat, and if done right and is pristine, that doesn't
seem like a bad price either.

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 for me at this point.
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.


Why single handed? You don't have friends or a wife to accompany you?
