Sounds like a great idea, would probably put a little structure in the discussion, and keep that part of it from meandering.
You know Chuck, when you come up with a great idea, you also get a job! . . .

We’ve had some lively chats in the email exchange recently about A-4 engines and the choices available for charging systems and electrical storage. Perhaps in each of the rendezvous, we could spend a bit of time on a particular topic first and then open up the floor for other discussions, maybe even inviting an outside source (Balmar, Beta Marine, an AGL battery guy, etc) to be a guest “expert” on the focal subject. Given the wealth of knowledge that our owners have accumulated, putting a monthly schedule of topics, perhaps seasonal in nature, might yield a bit more participation. And folks like Rob Mazza, John Kelly Cuthbertson, Rob Ball, and others could also be scheduled in to field questions or lead discussions. While this all may be a bit much from a planning standpoint, it wouldn’t be difficult to start a list of topics that seem to be hot buttons for discussion and take it from there… Suggestions for topics are welcome… Cheers, Chuck Gilchrest S/V Half Magic 1983 Landfall 35 Padanaram, MA From: Stu via CnC-List <cnc-list@cnc-list.com> Sent: Thursday, September 16, 2021 12:09 PM To: C&C Email List <cnc-list@cnc-list.com> Cc: Stu <s...@cncphotoalbum.com> Subject: Stus-List Cancelled again Since there appears to be little interest in tonite’s virtual zoom rendezvous, I have cancelled it. Maybe we will have more interest once the sailing season has slowed down. Stay safe ‘n’ healthy. Stu
