Voice of Macperience

Post by Catigale »

I'm thinking of starting a new sub Forum just for trip reports with problems that you wish to share.

The format follows the same format as the column in Sail magazine

Brief summary of what went down and resolution.

Might I also suggest a photo gallery, where folk could post a photo of their boat or even pictures of mods, I think the ability to browse a gallery would be more user-friendly that the current Mods Page..

The mods page has been a real source of inspiration for me, but is not really browsable (is that even a proper word :!: ).

As long as its not limited or intended only for Mac "Power Sailors" I'm all in.

I've often wondered why this forum doesn't have a "General Ma Discussion" section.
You know - about things that are common to ALL Mac/Venture/Westwind sailing.

That sounds like the best mod yet. If you want to start a Mac "sub" forum you will first have to remove all the foam floatation from the boat, and drill holes in the hull. Maybe paint it grey. Ballasts flooded. :D
