Hey Joe, No, there is no plan that I am aware of to change the message board over to Yahoo Groups. I'm not recommending that ,nor do I see a need to. I'm not the moderator of the MSOG list and wouldn't have the right to do it even if I wanted to (which I don't). Yahoo Groups just provided and easy way to establish a database list for an owner's registry that was searchable and easy to use. I think this webpage does an outstanding job at providing the MSOG message board, it is well known, easy to access, and I have never experienced difficulty entering it. I can't think of any reason to fix what's not broken. If Keith Diehl (the moderator here who does a stellar job) ever decided to no longer host the board, yahoo could be a option, but I have heard no grumblings to that effect and I will not "turn on" the message posting function of the yahoo page without a request from him. To do so would only splinter the group, exactly the opposite of the reason I put up the owner's registry (to get more of us in touch with each other). There have been an isolated number of folks that have had some difficulty accessing Yahoo groups and it usually pertains to them not establishing a Yahoo Groups username of password. Once you sign up, which is free, you sign in, and then all the functions of the page (like the database) are made available to you. The reason for this is that it eliminates spam from being posted (as much), and I'm sure it also allows yahoo to track folks gaining access to the site for marketing reasons. Neither of which is objectionable to me as they are providing the service to us for free. I hope folks will keep signing up......since I posted the reminder a few hours ago there have been 6 more boats added. I will occasionally post a reminder for folks that don't sign on regularly or who are new to the group. And hey........SMILE!!! YOU SAIL A MONTY!!!! :-) Thanks Sean M23 "Dauntless"
