I found this old thread while surfing around google. Is this what everyone was always talking about, the old OFFSHOREONLY boards?

I don't think thats it, I think that is just a differemnt format on the archives, The old one was just a list of topics

Nope. Liquid is right. It's just an 'abridged' version that is displayed when viewed from a google search.

The old board was much different.

Guys, I was on the original board back in 1999. I was known as "Baja Boss".

It was nothing as nice as this. A new thread was writen above the older ones and each reply was like a written under the thread. On one page you could read many without opening anything.

I do remember that it got VERY nasty. The hard core racers and those that thought they were fast/bad were always into it.

It actually shut down for a few months, then came back in a much nicer format. I was contacted at that point and asked if I would be interested in purchasing the website. I was really stupid about those things and could not visualize the future on the internet and turned it down.

It has sure come a long way and I think it is the premier boating site still.

Looks like I gave my $.02

It's change quite a bit in the 2 1/2 years I have been on board, that's for sure. Still a great site though, no doubt.
