I'd stay with the list, Stu
You never know what you're going t learn and it's easy to delete what doesn't
interest you. I am grateful for the every time I access it. Many thanks.

1) I can set my email to "thread" view. No advantage for me to go to forum.
2) How mobile friendly would forum be? I read a lot of the list mails on my
smartphone.
I'm old and don't like change. Slight preference to maintain current system.

Recently, some of our subscribers have indicated that they would like to
have a “Forum” similar to “cruisersforum” or “sailnet” instead of an email list
(like this one).
PROS:
1. Eliminate the costs related to the email list
2. Follow a thread easier without having to read multiple emails.
3. Easier to find past, archived messages and threads.
4. Possible addition of public and private photo albums.
5. Easily moderated by more than one person. Threads can be deleted and
undesirable subscribers blocked.
6. No more 20-30 emails a day. Visit the site at your convenience and view
the latest topics since your last visit.
CONS:
1. Forum software runs from free to around $250 depending on additional
enhancements.
2. Might (???) require additional disk space and bandwidth on hosting site.
($$$$)
3. Installation – I’ve done it before and it does take some time. And a
bit more time involved to get it tweeked to perfection.
Bottom line – would you rather have a FORUM or continue using this list?
It does not matter to me.
