Barbara, our newsletter editor, and Di, new editor of the technical handbook, have done a splendid job in modernising these two key publications. You should receive yours about now. I'd like to give encouragement to Barbara and Di's continuing creative efforts so if you would like to comment, please post your feedback here. We continue to evolve so do share your honest thoughts, good and bad.

Thanks - Ken

Having said that, I know from previous experience how much work goes into producing these things, and at the end of the day, i am happy enough with what I get for me 12 squids a year, seems like good value to me!

While I have the floor so to speak, as a new member, I would just like to say that I think the PSSA should change it's name, to the Seal and Parker Sailing Association, or SPSA if you like, after all the Seal came first, these Parker gizmo thingies are just tagging along![:D][:D]

On a more serious note, well just thank you really, to all you folk on the management team, and to my fellow members, both me and me boat have already benefitted quite a lot from my membership.

Cheers, Ray.
