**Updates to the site are coming** Site could be down at times...
 
Guys and Gals, happy to report there is something in the works that involves a revamp of the site! To that end there may be some downtime, so please be aware the site could be down but hopefully temporarily while we work through the process. This means some of the issues we have been dealing with for a couple of years will be resolved.

More to come on this but I'm excited about what this means for the future of this forum!

Excited about the site updates!
 
Looks like we lost a couple posts here on the transition - to be expected.

I don't know if you guys have gotten a chance to check out the notes on the main page about the site updates. Maybe some of you also rec'd an email from "[email protected]" regarding the plans for the site.

On that note, I wanted to introduce Dave aka WMPAdmin, Dave is taking over ownership of the site. He is a former V20 owner has history working in the marine industry going way back.

Also, off the main page check out the About link. There's some site history there and also a tribute to MJ.

Around the beginning of 2025 Dave and his team will work to move the existing forum to a more modern forum platform.

I'm thrilled to see the progress that has already been made and can't wait to see what is to come!

You are correct, though it was the ones only on this thread, we decided to let those 3 posts stay behind rather than redo the migration. Nothing else appears to have been lost.


While I will be handling all the technical backend of things and all future upgrades. I still need all of you all and your moderation skills on the forums.

We are working on fixing the bulk email to send out messages to everyone and hope to get them back, in the mean time, if you know anyone please reach out so we can get this forum active again.

In January we will migrate to a new forum software that will work great on mobile phones also and be responsive just like the website is now.

Regarding the website, we are working on getting the brochure section finished and likely add a video section for any of your videos you want displayed be it fishing or boat fixing. You will need to upload it to youtube first and enable the EMBED feature on the video then give us the embed link. That will likely also be January.

We are also working on cleaning up the dead links.

Holidays are getting close and I have some obligations but I wanted to get the site stable, an SSL installed and the email and recaptcha working before I needed to travel.

If anyone knows of other sites or forums that need help, please let me know. I have to see all the hard work over the years disappear and I have the resources to revive them. Just need moderation help :)

Dave
