I have tried looking a few times, so bl00dy boring, the stupidity of some of the posts makes my eyes glaze over.
The new TV campaign about not posting what you wouldn't say seems very apt.

mags and mark have gone over and above for this forum over the years - if you want try to create one Duncan be my guest……
the software deployment is the easy bit. I know, I’ve built them myself, but there’s rarely any thanks in it, so whatever Mark’s decision, I would like to say thank you to him for providing this welcome distraction from the mundanity of office life for the past 20+ years. If Facebook is its slayer then so be it… the one thing we all know as dinghy sailors is that those touting something as a technological advancement don’t always get it right. Despite the glitz and the glamour, the best fun we might have might be back in the water-pusher with your old mates This forum had a great innings, I’ve met some great people in real life as a result of this place, but it’s the front page articles that keep me coming back… dropping in on the forum once in a while is not the reason Y&Y is still in my bookmarks best of luck to Mark and Mags, whatever your decision. And once again, thank you. |

Just to say that this Y&Y site is great place for news and reports, and I am sure that the site will continue to provide that. Many thanks to Mark for providing this great resource. But the forum has had its day. Maybe The Pin End can fill the void, time will tell.

A very concise and accurate take on the situation. I really hope something good comes out of it  ( my only thought is what ever format, a ignore/ blocking function is a must ) Thanks to Mark and Mags for all the time they have spent on this forum over the years .
