Re: Stus-List List or forum
I rarely post, but do try to read most things. Some subjects are more important and relevant to me and some posts I just plain delete either because I have a zillion posts in my mailbox or because I'm not interested in subject or how the conversation has digressed from the topic. I would much prefer a forum format. I am part of the Cruiser's and Sailing Forums and it works very well for me. I would like to see something like it. This current list thing is a pain in my rumpus trying to find the posting I want and scrolling past all the endless copied posts that completely unnecessary. My emaill does NOT automatically sort through the minutia. Sure topics do tend to digress in the same manner, but - they send me an email automatically each day with latest topics posted to in a simple format with links to the post. - can look back a very long way in various topics and read up on the issue. This is helpful for new folks or if you have a new problem and you want to learn more from the past. - pictures are nice. I have a few things I need help identifying and no way to post it here and don't know where to begin describing them. A forum could help with that. Ugh, can't think of anything else at the moment. I know there are more benefits to forum.

Re: Stus-List List or forum
I vote 'LIST'.if this group of CC owners (and Mike Hoyt) transition to something like a forum or Facebook, I doubt I will be participating. I like the ease and simplicity of this 'list'.from the responses I have read so far, I think the majority agree. Rob Abbott AZURA CC 32 - 84 Halifax, N.S.

Re: Stus-List List or forum
I'd like to put forward a vote to try the forum. I've been using this list for over 12 years. I'm a big fan and try to give back and help newer skippers as I was helped when I first got my CC. But I'm starting to think the forum format might be better? Sometimes I google a question on the web and find wonderful advice and recommendations from the other forums like Sailnet and Sailing Anarchy and many others, but I don't think the list is open to those kinds of searches? If Stu would like the challenge, fine. If its a pain to do, don't bother.

Re: Stus-List List or forum
Bob; It seems that what you are3 wanting is pretty much what is on the DIY pages of the photo album. Personally, I value the personal comments and experiences on the list, even if they are only tangentially related to CCs. There are folks on the list that I first met a couple of versions of the list - pushing 20 years - ago, and folks on the list who don't even own a CC anymore. The list is a community. And as far as a CLOSED Facebook page goes, I have a friend with a new to her 29-2. She discovered the Photo Album and the list on her own. If the CC 29 Facebook page is invitation only, how would she even find it, let alone get an invitation to join. The Phot Album and this list are one of the strongest reasons I can think of for buying an older CC in preference to another brand.
