From time to time the forum is the subject of spammers advertising various things. Some are blatant, for example the new 'Chrome' browser or 'Trek-style gadget to detect cancer'. Others are more subtle, asking a sailing related question but putting an advert at the bottom of the email.

Just thought you'd like to know.

I normally run my VP diesel at 1,900 to 2,100 revs depending on conditions (a good deal slower than VP recommends) but every now and then I run it at up to an hour at 3,000 (when fuel consumption triples) on advice given very long ago that "diesels need to be worked".

Is this good advice or an old wives tale?

Any advice appreciated.]]>

The first post was an enquiry about whether Windows 7 or Vista is best. I left this as it may possibly have had a boating context. The second post by the same user gave 10 top tips for Google chrome. This smacks of advertising, as well as being off-topic in a boating forum.

(Please note, I left the obvious advert for the 'Pildne' floating fuel station because:
a) it is relevant to boating and may be of vague interest to some members, and,
b) although we are never likely to buy one, it is nice to dream that one day we might buy such an item from Latvia).

I have just received a mooring warning from the FYCA, so I thought I would share it with u all.
The 2 spare moorings at Elie have been condemned as of now. It is hoped they will be recovered and repaired as soon as possible.

If the weather precludes lifting out on that day then the next suitable day will be the 24th.
Royal Forth are lifting out on the 17th and POLMBC at a later date (not known),
The usual rules apply, Hard hats, no children in the yard and only owners to advise banksman on positioning of boats on cradles and trailers.
Hopefully the Bell Block Cafe will be available for snacks all day, put it in the diary

something to get a discussion going.
Is it possible to publish the minutes of committee meetings and the decisions taken on our behalf by our beloved committee, onto the website.
The website is looking good but is very much under used and I was discussing with our webmaster the member's area section of the site which is not used at all. By publishing the minutes of meetings it will perhaps get more peolpe involved in the day to day running of the club and also keep member's up to date with all the clubs' business good or bad. Its just a thought but a good one I think, anyone otherwise minded.]]>
