Perhaps it's because after 10-15 years of what members have had to suffer and the way they have been treated with little help from governing bodies or outside agencies that people need to ask questions elsewhere. The point of the question was to see if any others had similar experiences. It's not presenting evidence or asking for judgement from the forum. There's no doubt the club in question would say it's done everything correctly in contrast to what others say. How would you get an independent view on that without an independent investigation? And who could ensure that happened? 
There are no swimmers involved in this particular one.

Get the impression CYHT and JRB12 may not be sailors, CYHT did not appear to be a fan of sailors on the committee and cannot spell dinghy, just saying

Following all the clues on posts, the club I think they are talking about is well known and respected, probably won't like this thread!

Totally agree, when you get two new posters start a thread like this it always sets off warnings signals.

I haven’t guessed which club it is , so I have no idea about the credence of these allegations, BUT at very least we are getting a very one sided view of the alleged wrong doings with out any evidence at all. Or even any independent views of how this club is run .

Is this a beach toy, swimmers attempted coup, big mistake allowing them a vote.

Another club member? If a club is known and respected it does not necessarily mean it is a good club. A facade can exist quite easily and that's exactly what this particular club have. The image they portray reflects little of the mire of corruption that exist under that veil. It probably isn't a club you are thinking of.

The club in question is supposed to promote ALL aspects of water activity ,Cruisers,Dingy,Racing,Power Boating,Angling,Waterskiing,Diving etc etc.
Those in control are all ‘Sailors’ and probably the fairest way to say it without emotional phrases is to say they support and promote all aspects of Sail over everything else.Having an opinion not in line with theirs is a very dangerous one that I and many other former members have found out.

Please see my comment re AGM.On the question of a democratic club, my private minutes from a Disciplinary Committee I sat on sadly within this club on ‘charges’ against a member for a comment on a private Facebook page.. the chairman of the committee when asked by me as to whether we are a democratic club , the comment back was,”I think you’ll find that those who do the most work have the biggest say”,to which I reiterated “so we are not democratic” ,”that’s how it is” was the reply,if we don’t find xxxx guilty then we will just **** off xxxx and xxxx.”
Sadly the wind up comment could not be further from the truth.

I think I shall answer many of these posts in good time,if I attempted to comment on all now then I’d be here till gone Christmas.At a previous AGM A group for change had collected a huge number of proxy votes for the vacant committee positions.
I approached the Commodore on the evening of the AGM and as per Club Rules said we have a the right for the elections to be by proxy,the reply was “I’ve agreed with the President it will be by a show of hands” I objected and said Club rules allow this if requested by the requisite number of members to be by Proxy,the reply was no it’s going to be a show of hands,with a further comment of “ I’m really disappointed in you “ ….guess what it was a show of hands and the incumbent cabal committee remained.
