[C320-list] 2022 C320 Officers Election

[david.allred at verizon.net]

Mark--You are not out of line at all. Indeed, you express the thoughts of most if not every member of the C320 Association, both past and present. We all have relied on Jeff's experience, expertise, and commitment to our association both as a C320 owner and as webmaster. Although, he cannot BE the webmaster, he can certainly volunteer his services as he has done for years. We, the governing board (but mostly Jeff and Bill Culbertson), are in the process of transferring the current forum to a new platform that should integrate many of the association's functions including membership and web based services. We hope that once that transfer is completed, we will find another webmaster. I don't know that all members realize just how much time and effort Jeff and Bill have contributed to the association. It is truly remarkable and cannot be overstated. Thanks for being a member and offering your comments. By the way, do you know of anyone who is willing to step forward and assume the mantle of Commodore?David Allred

Hi All, I am so new to this, but wish to put my two cents worth in. Jeff
Hare might not technically own a 320 anymore, but you would never know it
with all the help and advise he has given us since we bought his boat. He
has replaced our cutlass bearing, packing, winterized, dried our water
tanks and so on. Even is going to polish the hull in the spring. It was his
baby and still is in a way. Such a wealth of knowledge should not be
discounted. Maybe the rules should be bent a bit to allow him to continue
in his capacity if no one else steps forward. Co-owner in trust or
something to that effect. If I am out of line please say so… Thanks, Mark
Hood
