I like the list. Use a separate address for it so regular emails are not affected. Sometimes a lot of volume but no big deal to delete what is not interesting to me. Cheers Stu, and thanks again.

I get to see every email under its own tab with Gmail and I chose which I want to read. Many times I am reading not because I have an issue but to learn a little more about my wonderful boat! I know that I would not travel to a separate site and log in to scroll through topics on a forum. I like the idea of the gofundme account too. Keep us posted on that!

PROS: 1. Eliminate the costs related to the email list 2. Follow a thread easier without having to read multiple emails. 3. Easier to find past, archived messages and threads. 4. Possible addition of public and private photo albums. 5. Easily moderated by more than one person. Threads can be deleted and undesirable subscribers blocked. 6. No more 20-30 emails a day. Visit the site at your convenience and view the latest topics since your last visit. CONS: 1. Forum software runs from free to around $250 depending on additional enhancements. 2. Might (???) require additional disk space and bandwidth on hosting site. ($$$$) 3. Installation – I’ve done it before and it does take some time. And a bit more time involved to get it tweeked to perfection. Bottom line – would you rather have a FORUM or continue using this list? It does not matter to me.
