Translated: All of our web sites for Hunter, Catalina, O'Day, and Beneteau owners will be read-only web sites Friday (and for some folks, bits of Sat/Sun) as we move our servers once again. While the move takes place Friday, all aspects of the sites will be online with the following exceptions: - you won't be able to post anything in the forums, photo album, boat reviews, etc. - the store will be closed This condition will last most of the day Friday, and for some users, into the weekend. By Sunday or Monday at the latest, all will be back to normal - but better. For those interested in such things, we now serve approx. 1.4 million pages per month, to the tune of about 40-50 gigs of data. And we've been serving it all on a pair of DSL lines. Which, frankly, has been better than you might think. However, the reliability of DSL, and the low priority our phone company places on DSL repair, makes its future and ours incompatible. Friday we are moving the servers into co-location with plenty of bandwidth, daily backup, redundant connections, good remote support, and 24-hour on-call technicians. It costs a lot more, but should provide better speed and *much* better reliability. Our goal is that our sites virtually never go down. Thanks for your patience -- again. We're sure it will be worth the inconvenience.
