Welcome! If your looking for information on anchors you've come to the right place but you will find a lot of differing opinions. Go to the Seach tab and type in anchors and you should get lots to read. Enjoy!!

Greetings,
Welcome aboard.

Or more, since some of us are of two minds about such issues.

True...but when asking questions on this forum the large number of opinions is helpful as then they can be considered and weighed and generally there are good points to be taken away from all them...

Anchors, anchors, anchors.....reminds me of an advertisement from the 70's

Hola, and congrats on your new vessel!

Hey thanks everyone. I posted the question about anchors and I got a lot of opinions you are right, but one theme came through, and I appreciate all of the experience talking. I think from the discussion I know what anchor I will purchase so I can sleep at night. Thanks again for the welcome.....

The other subject which I have discovered draws much "discussion" is the single vs. twins debate...

I won't ask that one since I don't have a choice. I just have one John Deer, she doesn't need a mate, she never quits.

Geez trying to get a picture of Cabernet to post.

That's what she is named after.....

When making a post scroll down the screen below the "Submit Post" icon and click on the "Manage Attachments" icon.

A window will pop open giving you the prompts to complete the attachment process.

Can't wait to see the pics

Here she is....

Another question. How do you get a picture to come up under your name on the left?

In the top left corner of any screen locate and click on the "User CP" icon in the red band next to the "FAQ" icon. In the left column(your control panel) of the screen that opens under the heading "settings & Options" find the "Edit Avatar" icon and click on it.

Follow a similar series of prompts to load your "Avatar" photo.

Often new folks confusingly load a "Profile Picture" located under the first option in your control panel in the profile section. That photo only shows on your profile page, not the upper left corner of your posts and can be different if you wish.

Your Cabernet is sweeter than the one I just decanted

Thanks, that's what I needed

Carson City, NV? We've got a great group of CA Delta and SF Bay boaters here. Maybe we'll get a chance to see Cabernet close up someday soon.

Welcome aboard!

Nice Cabernet...What is her vintage?

We will probably bring her down in a year. We have a lot of exploring to do in the San Juan's and Canada first. We are members of the Sac. Yacht Club.

Nice Rig Welcome
