It's more like rec.boats.kindergarten. I can't wait for spring. It will give
me an excuse to get off the net and on my boat.

 Doug,
 I know my post will not make a difference, but what has happened is that
 most of the contributors who liked the forum as a group to discussion
boats,
 have long left this group.  The regulars now come here to discuss politics
 and ignore most posts concerning boats.  As I said, I know the group wont'
 change, but Joe's posts is a fair request.  At one time, this group was
90%
 on topic and 10% off topic, it is now about 80% OFF TOPIC and 20% on
topic.
 Since the group is not moderated, it will go whatever way the regulars
want
 it to go, but I am sure we will see less and less boating topics as this
 group is taking over by those who think it is a political forum.  It
appears
 that the regulars want this to be a political forum.

  If you see a topic regarding bilge pumps, but you have no interest in
that
  at the moment, what do you do?

   Doesn't this board have a moderator?  It's really a downer to see a
once
   fine source of information on boats and boating in general get
polluted
 by
   non boating garbage.
  
   There are other sites where folks can spout off on non-boating topics.
