I would be interested on a fee basis.

Same here on paying something to keep this going. I can't host it - it would be a disaster if I tried but will sure support you or one of the other guys as much as I can to keep it going. I too, visit almost every day and would really miss it if it were gone.

I also am very grateful for your years faithful service and I think all of our community would completely support you if you wanted to hand off all or part of your duties.

Please let us know what we can do.

Just keep this in mind... I own and operate a website & app development firm down here in South Florida. We host a lot of websites on our dedicated servers... I don't think this one wouldn't be a problem. Let me know what the file size is on the root folder and what kind of bandwidth we'd be looking at.

Well, I, for one, am not willing to let this site go down without a fight. So what are we talking about as far as $$ goes MJ? Who is running the site now, how much do they want in the future, etc. Need some information about the workings of the site to make informed decisions. But like a few others have said already, I would bet there are several people here, including myself, that might be able to step up to the plate and take over the admin duties, etc. Actually, because of your health, I've been expecting something like this for a while now. Maybe it's time to pass the reins MJ.

I'm with the others. I'm not willing to sit and watch this place go if I can do something about it. I have no idea how to host but can help out fund wise.

MJ let us know how to help!!

what he said!!!!!!!

btw MJ, hope you are feeling better

and by the way MJ, we really appreciate ll you've done to keep this site up and running

Well this is a bummer. You've done us all so much by keeping this page up and running MJ. I certainly would help out financially. Even though I currently own no V-20's (amazing I know) you guys have been great to talk boats with. I'm on a few different boat forums and you guys are by far the coolest. I'd hate to see this go away, let's keep this from happening!!

Okay I am in talks with Blue Runner and looks like he is going to take over I put him in touch with to get all the password passwords for the database so hurt and goes right he will get a new man we'll keep you guys posted

2nd what everybody else said - thanks a ton MJ for keeping this up for this long with all you've had to deal with. I sure would not even own a V21 if not for this site, and if I did it probably would not RUN. lol

So I will plan to keep it going as soon as I get in touch with MJ's guy. Left him a VM today. Will need to get hosted on a new server so should be fairly easy to pick up and move, then we will be all set.
