Title: Com-Pacs in SCA
Post by: Pete H on February 15, 2014, 12:55:41 AM
Hi Guys,

Just got my latest copy of Small Craft Advisor (issue 86,if you guys have all already seen it, I apologise, it takes a while to make it down here). It is a bit of a bonanza for people with a particular interest in Compacs. There is a mini cruiser comparison  of the Potter 15, Montgomery 15 and Com-Pac 16. Interesting reading, nice photo's and a page of line drawings comparing each boat. CP 16owners won't be disappointed. There is also a short Reader's Boat article on a Sun Cat, lovely boat.

Cheers, I have been enjoying the "Snow" photo's. It's a bit warmer down here at present!

Hey Pete:
   I got mine about a week and a half ago here in NJ. Great little comparison article and I must admit I've always had a fond place in my heart for the Montys. Gerry Montgomery was the chief designer for the little Sage 17. I saw that boat at the show in Annapolis last October and that is one nice, well thought out little cruiser. There is mention of a Sage 15 in the same issue.
  Gettin' warmer there down under?
