Bill -if you have a moment, could you post the wonders of this goldmine of M info on the FB page. I think they have a lot of users who don't know about the great, easily searchable (which FB isn't) archive of info here. FB page big advantage is the perceived ease of posting pix there but with small effort, it can be done here albeit without a chance for video EXCEPT, except the easy ability to post a link here to either FB, YT or other video repositories

Joel,
Count on it. I've got plenty of time - sitting at home in living room waiting for surgical repair of broken ankle and natural healing of broken fibula. My own dumb fault - cutting tree up at our home. Been cutting wood since '75 but let caution slip.

Saddest part..

I've been stuck NOT GOING TO THE DOCK / BOAT since Sept. 7!!

Joel,
Done. Let me know if you want / need any changes.

That is gracious of you for taking up the chore as you heal (and I hope that goes well -- my own big thing is another knee replacement in two wls. First one last Jan went quite well and I'm hoping for similar outcome but there is no a guarantee. Ladders after a while are not a senior's best friend).
NEW info tech has outpaced this site because they have some bells and whistles that I don't think are necessary but do attract eyeballs. We are in a bit of a hidden corner. But the info and site users are solid!

Good luck, Joel!!

In case anyone hasn't seen my post on the unfortunate loss of traffic on the sight lately, especially since the site went down last time, I proposed a question on giving the site more visibility. Problem is, my post only shows up if you're logged in (members only), so many may have not seen it. Many times people may simply check out the forum, in hopes to find an answer to a question, without logging in. I do it every now and then. So log in, check out my question titled Loss of Traffic. Maybe we can get some ideas tossed around. I try to gin-up traffic if I see a good M for sale on craigslist or Facebook Marketplace and linking them here, in hopes of keeping people enthused about our beloved Marinettes. I y'all have any ideas, love to hear them.

Hi,
Glad the forum is alive and well.
Haven't been on since it went down a while ago.
