I think one of the final insults by the RYA was to be given "Gold" membership. Labelling us as old coffin dodgers without giving any meaningful benefit, such as concessionary subscription rates. I resented this.
Gold membership is a function of the length of time you have been a member AFAIK, not a function of your age. It does carry specific benefits, some of which some people will no doubt find useful.
