I really dislike Facebook myself, but 'bit the bullet' and created a profile just for the Montgomery group. It has no friends, profile photos, etc. so I don't have to see anything but the Montgomery group. I even setup an ad blocker so there is no ads or "feed." I've been using e-mail lists for decades, and really like them, but they seem to be a dying thing. It's a shame because they can be archived as flat text files, with the cumulative wisdom and advice saved forever- which I don't think is possible for Facebook groups or forums, which eventually get lost and disappear.

I don’t do FB either, but am still sailing a bit. Continuing to live in New Mexico but bought a cottage on Seneca Lake (in New York’s Finger Lakes) and get over there two or three times a year to sail. Have a covered hoist for winter storage with mast down and a topless hoist for summer, so no more trailering. 😊 Bill Riker Storm Petrel
