CVRDA

Certainly looking forward to attending some events...hopefully. I can’t host an event but if all goes to plan there are a couple of vintage sailing events around here (deepest west wales) I can tell you about later. These may not be racing as such but do say if you could be tempted to make the journ...

Yes the pros and cons mentioned above I agree with. Certainly the forum is not what it used to be but FB does support the CVRDA mission but in a different way now. I, personally, don’t ‘get’ Facebook and don’t sign up to friends and other pages, I dislike so much of it that I sign out of it for week...
