Ahoy!






We are the happy, lucky owners of a 1984 Montgomery 15! We used to have a Lido 14, but didn't use it once Parker was born. We felt like it was finally time to move up to something that we felt comfortable sailing in with Parker, and an M15 was always a dream boat of ours. We found just the right one up in Auburn, CA, and drove up there to pick her up a couple of weekends ago. This was our second day out sailing in "Lil' P," an afternoon out on Mission Bay. Parker seems fine with sailing so far, although he really needed a nap on this day, and just couldn't fall asleep down below. He tried out steering a little bit--maybe he'll learn how to drive with a tiller before a steering wheel?? We're hoping to hang on to Lil' P forever, but we just may have to move up to something even bigger some day--something in, I don't know, the 36-foot range perhaps?
