Kirk,

You are listed in the database I have as being paid up to 2/28/2006. You should have received an invoice from Nanosec (who handles membership services for us) around that time. I am not aware that we have asked them to issue follow-up invoices to members that do not renew... that would probably be a good idea. After they receive your payment, you are sent a welcome letter from our commodore and 2 decals. Are you still receiving the Mainsheet?

Rejoin info is here...

PLEASE DO!!

Jim,

Our latest count is 349 members or approx 31% of C320 hulls produced. This has been about the same number of members over the last year. Other Catalina associations range from 30 - 54% of hulls being members. The new design boats seem to do the best probably helped by the fact that the factory pays for the first year of dues for new boat purchasers. The reason that the website database has not been updated is that our webmaster is busying working on higher priority projects, including the website redesign.

Please note that list membership (ie. website and email discussion list) is different than membership in the C320 International Association. All the benefits of association membership may be found here...

Subject: Re: [C320-list] Leadership Needed

I had always been an active paying member but, haven't received an invoice or anything else recently to allow me to send my dues. I guess I'm the kinda guy that needs an invoice with payment instruction to remind me I need to ante up.Kirk McCulloughBoomerang #124----- Original Message ----- From: "harold brown" <jbrown5093 at yahoo.com>To: "C320-List" <c320-list at catalina320.com>; <C320-List at catalina320.com>Sent: Saturday, August 25, 2007 10:54 AMSubject: Re: [C320-list] Leadership Needed>I just looked at the hull roster and noticed that> there are very few active members of the organization.> Has there been a fall off in the number of members in> the last year?
