[C320-list] Testing c320-list restart

[Bruce Walters]

Hello All.....
 
I'm not sure who wrote this email but I certainly want to thank you for publicly reminding me that I haven't paid my dues.   
 
We live aboard S/V Reality as we cruise full time and apparently my mail forwarding service "filtered" a bill from the association as junk mail.   For those of you who have dreams of full time cruising get a better forwarding service than we have or, you too, might be publicly embarrassed!    
 
Actually this is a common problem for full time cruisers (handling mail).   We have all our bills paid online or automatically paid.  So the only mail we need worry about is correspondence from none computer users.  But if 'ol Aunt Jesse sends us a xmas card we better respond!   
 
For those of you who are interested in a general description of the commissioning we did to prepare for our cruise see www.realitysails.blogspot.com .  This is very general info but if anyone is interested in detailed info, let me know.  If some members feel it would be helpful I'll be glad to write an article for the C 320 mag or the website.  Or, I guess, I can the door.
 
Oh, as far as the tardy membership I'll check the website for the address to send $ to.   BTW I think the website looks great, and since it was mentioned, I see I can change my email to have the messages put in one email rather than fo many individual (can't remember what that is called).  Actually, I can't remember my password either.  Sure is easy to forget stuff when my biggest decision is "to reef or not".  
 
Fair winds, 
 
Bruce
