Where are you ?

[Sixpence]

Just a quick survey to see if we can find out where the majority of readers are, so where is your boat ?

 

[eastcoastbernie]

Didn't PyroJames do one of these not so long ago?

 

[pyrojames]

Err, did I? Might have done so, it does ring vague bells. At the moment I don't fit in this poll as the boat and myself are in Cambridge...

Very soon to change though, we launch next Thursday! Wooo Hooo!

 

[Sixpence]

May as well tick the box for where you're going to be anyway, it's really just to give a rough idea only

 

[pyrojames]

I ticked, none of the above, but shall be back on the Orwell. However I normally head south, Walton backwaters, Blackwater, Colne, only occaisionally Deben/Or as I draw a bit too much to make it relaxed.

 

[Sixpence]

No problem, one extra vote added

In the Deben, Woodbridge in particular is very popular with artists, or is it the presence of fellow artists when you're so busy drawing that you find unrelaxing?

I know a skipper who goes in there with only 300 mm under the keel /forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif /forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif

[Phoenix of Hamble]

300mm was it?....... I didn't know that as I had my eyes shut!.....

Least I didn't hit the bottom!

Didnt take long for you to stick yer 'ed above the parapet /forums/images/graemlins/laugh.gif

 

[Sixpence]

Sounds interesting Dougie, care to tell more ? /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif

 

[pyrojames]

That'd be 400 mm more than I had last time I went in! And the new boat draws another 2 feet....

Still, I will go in sometime soon, the river is too nice to exclude from operations.

 

[Sixpence]

Right, it seems we are (at this time) mostly populated by Essex and Suffolk sailors. Had a chat with moderator Dan earlier today and thinking about installing something like Google maps on the forum so people can maybe add their boat location or intended destination, in case a few are coincidentally going to the same place, and decide to get together, or something like that.
I can do it without too much difficulty, but is it something people would want or use ?
No point doing it if you don't want it folks, so over to you, bad idea or good ?
Do you want it and would you use it ?

 

[Phoenix of Hamble]

Bad idea..... Brendan did something similar a couple of years back, and loadsa folks didn't want to use it.....

 

[Sixpence]

Oh /forums/images/graemlins/blush.gif I didn't know that, must have been before my time

 

[JKay]

Look

HERE

cheers Joe

 

[Sixpence]

Yep, joined that ages ago but didn't realise not many used it, I was thinking of one just for those around here but no point if nobody wants it
Nice to see the spread of members goes all the way through to Yorkshire though

The map views must have been reset at some point, as the number of people registered on the map way exceeds the supposed number of viewers.

Had a lot of issues with it though, as twice the owner of site has been reregistered with someone else randomly, and I've had to contact them to be reassigned as owner.
