How many people here use Whitewater Club Forums?

Example: Baltimore Canoe Club or Monocay Canoe Club or
www.professorpaddle.com

I am curious who reads this group and if there are many real boaters
that use this outlet.

James,

Unfortunately this group is dormant. It was created when
rec.boats.paddle had a lot of traffic and the touring folks wanted a
group of their own. The whitewater paddlers stayed on rec.boats.paddle.
After a couple of particularly bothersome trolls, most of the whitewater
folks either left to boatertalk, or a number of other web-based forums.
At least there the moderators could ward of the trolls.

rec.boats.paddle is now but a shadow of its former self.

I check in here but I am mostly sea kayaking.
This site likely has more history than future. Too bad,its fine now

Along with Wilko, I too remember the hayday of RPB. I still have some
stickers someone made and sold from that era. One putz almost singlehandedly
destroyed the NG and it never really made it's way back. I check from time
to time anyway though :-)
As far as club boards, the Monocay board is well used, my club's board is
growing slowly but active daily. http:\\www.conewagocanoeclub.org click
