Youtube channel for MacGregorsailors

Post by Russ »

BOAT has come up with a brilliant idea for promoting this site and providing great information for Mac owners.

Our very own Youtube channel!

Now it needs content. https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCiRTdG ... subscriber

So I'm asking the community, do you have some good instructional or helpful videos you would be willing to share?
Could be rigging, mods, sailing tips, winterizing, who knows? Just good information that other sailors can benefit from.

If you would like to be part of this, email me at "Macgregorsailorsdotcom" @gmail.com spell out the dot, it's not a literal dot.

I have a few videos already on youtube, but I have no idea how to put them on that new channel. Move, or link to, or re-upload. When I go to upload, it's onto my own channel, if that's even the right term.

I'm not active on places like that, so I really haven't a clue. As you can tell. :D

Tom....with your permission, I can download the videos and post them to the Mac channel. I can do this for any videos with the owner's permission.

Post the link or PM me the link if you don't want it public.

Hey Russ,

So if we want a yid posted on this site we just send you a link to the vid?

I have a question: Is it required that the vid is on you tube or can you take links from other sites like Vimeo?

(That's two questions)

I'm now following that Youtube channel, but there's no content yet. I thought I read on one of these threads that someone was posting something. Is that still happening?
