    New member cannot access or post in For Sale forum.

    My sailing buddy is now retired and has lots of pre loved paraphanalia to dispose of. He has registered with you but for some reason cannot post in the For Sale forum. I cannot work out what is wrong as I do not have the same problem. Can anyone tell me the reason? Many thanks

    Route du Rhum

    Love it that Herrmann the German observed that besides commercial traffic, weather conditions, and wind farms, one of the chief problems to be encountered at the start was French Lobster Pots! Didn't mention orcas though.

    The Rime of the Ancient Mariner - Hallowe'en Interpretation

    I found this over Hallowe'en and though it is a precis of the original I think Nick Dwyer has done a good job. Should like a more discriminating audience's views. P. S. I don't drink beer.

    Patrick Laine Videos on YouTube??

    My favourite is no 18 which tells you how to make a tidy entry short handed onto a pontoon with a good breeze pushing you off. The expletives wasted on this exercise usually directed at the poor helmsman ( me). Not going to tell you, see for yourself. Simples!

    The mystery is - after his latest epic voyage - he is going to buy a new boat which will not be a catamaran. The suspense!

    UK’s biggest warship suffers propeller shaft damage off south coast after setting sail for US

    'Hit something on the bottom'. Please, please don't tell me they tried to go over the submarine barrier rather than go through the forts. Too late to get AIS track on Marine Traffic - can anyone help?
