This site is more user friendly
One of the things I like the most here is that you can simply click on "New Posts" and see everything.
The downside of many 'sites that are like the B 'site is that for some unknown reason they've chopped it up into segments. With today's search engines, there's simply no reason to do that. We've had that discussion for years, with people wanting, for instance, separate engine and electrical "sections" and our response has been: is an alternator in engines or electrical?
When a member set up our C34 website Message Board, he included more categories than there were types of sailboats!
Other than for specific local Fleet activities which we make accessible to our Fleets, we use one, and one only Board, where everything gets posted. We have both a MB search engine and a full website Google search engine and you can find anything you want to learn about or read up on.
Having the ability to see chronological posts makes watching the input and replies SO much easier. A post in any of the subsections shows up on New Posts, so you have the option of either looking in, for instance, Big Boats, or New Posts. Best solution for everyone.
Keep up the good work, Phil and Bruce and Maine Sail and all the others who make this 'site so useful and helpful.
