There are indeed such groups as you seek.
I know of a few good newsgroups and forums... some are so good that people
(including myself) use thier real names and even post under genuine e-mail
addresses!
Alas we would be foolish indeed to say where they are....
Bobspit etc aint showed up on them yet and we would not want to tell him
where to look.
Sorry

I thought I would come to this group hopefully to learn a few things about
sailing, but there are a few individuals who have nothing better to do with
their lives but post a lot of bull****. Are there any other sailing
discussion groups out there that are monitored and policed to keep dumb
ass's like Bobspit off of them.

Thank you from someone who wishes to learn something.
Tom
