As originally intended, the Bulletin Board on the web site not only provides a way to post Class announcements, but it also enables members to ask or search for already posted answers to common (or even not so common) questions regarding maintenance, equipment or repairs. This is where posts to the bulletin board are starting to amass a valuable data-base of useful reference information on the 9.1 Meter. A data-base available 24/7 to anyone in need of help! TheTechnical Assistance, Fixes & Advice topic on the bulletin board has the greatest number of posts with 256 messages in 54 sub-topics from "Babystay Removal" to "Yanmar Engine Issues" BOTTOM LINE? The web site bulletin board is the place to go for answers and help on just about anything related to the 9.1 Meter! Three former 9.1 owners reported that they sold their boats in 2001 by posting in the "S2 9.1’s For Sale" section of the board. This saved them considerable brokerage fees. Additionally a number of members have reported that the "Equipment Parts/Wanted & Parts For-Sale" sections have been very helpful. NEW SECTIONS WERE ADDED TO THE SITE IN 2001! In the past year, four members have added their boat photos to the website. If anyone is interested in having a photo gallery on thesite they should contact the Class Webmaster (Russ Fender). The "Factory Catalog/Manual" section has been greatly expanded with "Sales Brochures", "Owners Manuals" & "Price Lists". If anyone has original literature or Factory manuals that they could provide to us to post to the site, we’re sure all members would greatly appreciate it. |
