Sorry, but what does this have to do with transporting a Monty, or a rudder? Can we really not take the time to trim a post or start a new one? This makes it impossible to search info you need in archives, massively clogs up the daily digest with endless reply streams, is lazy and is super annoying.

I am looking for some advice for a permanent mounted stern ladder for my 1976 M-17. I want to order one that I know will fit. Does anybody have any suggestions?

Or reply, but erase all previous parts of the message unless you want to keep a selected bit to create immediately accessible context. I am guilty here as well. I do find the erasure method easier than using the montgomery_boats@mailman.xmission.com and entering a new subject line. YMMV.
Didn’t know I was on a site with rigid rules. Thought it was for enjoyment and hearing from others. Frankly as I followed the transport issues it reminded me of my Army days in meetings with colonels wanting to impress with their superior knowledge for a simple issue a private could resolve in 15 minutes. I’m here for enjoyment of others and if I am to adhere to rigid rules that I gave have up long ago and now at 80 I may in the wrong place. I’ve enjoyed it so far but when someone complains about someone not adhering to a rule as it was done disturbs me. Charlie Sent from my iPhone

It's a reasonable request, made perhaps somewhat harshly. At the least, having an accurate subject helps everyone on the list know at a glance whether a post is of interest to them or not. It's just a friendly helpful thing to do on a list. Think of it like all the friendly helpful things we do as sailors for other sailors - grab a line, help tie up or cast off, snag that hat/pail/pfd/sponge that got dropped or blew overboard, give an assist on the ramp, getting on or off the trailer, etc. etc. and so on. When we "reply" we can simply edit the "subject" field of the reply, if we are changing the subject. There's no need to make a brand new message. cheers, John On 2/4/21 7:46 PM, Paul Baker wrote:

Thanks, Larry. It was done with "tongue in cheek" more than for any other reason. If my "ramble" is the cause of ALL these emails about "play nice", then I may start a syndicated column.
