Saw the twin struts and thought you found my boat. No hard feelings if you did, It would be in Good Hands.
Such a great boat now that I saw the Overhead brochure and read the. Introduction about Brownie .

This wasn't just done arbitrarily. It was earned by PBN. When they went live we(OSO/IB) were sure that we could get along well and everybody would benefit. Then Brad went against some people's advice and took shot after shot at this site for not being "owned by boaters" and other not so nice comments. The decision was made that rather than play that game the site would treat PBN as it didn't exist as much as possible.
Now, having said that, I interact with Brad regularly and think he promotes his site how he sees fit. We speak at nearly every event we attend together and sometimes in between. I have no ill will and hope all the sites survive long enough for the Facebook/ADD crowds to realize the benefits of a centralized forum that can be easily searched, used and understood.

No apologies needed. It's been a few years and times have changed. I realize the "old OSO' is gone for good but I'll still tell you it was life changing to join here and meet countless people that have become great friends from around the world. To me it's still like coming home to be here.
