Apologies to those of you who noticed that the forum was down for a period overnight. We had an out of memory error and needed to restart it. Looks like all is good now....we'll keep an eye on it today (had been running flawlessly for 200+ days) but don't expect to see any issues.....

Thanks to @Bruce for restarting and checking the logs!
 
Thank you guys for running this forum. Great resource!
Much appreciated!
 
x3... plus there's a computer PSA in all of this. Reboot, and it'll fix itself.
 
Now wait just a minute...over two years old and we have had only one unexpected shut down? Seems to me, an update on a previous forum took it down for 3 days!

It's a multi-tasking thing. Regarding the other forum, it's hard to collect donations and try to set up business deals, all while maintaining the hardware and software. You have to prioritize, ya know?
 
I started to send @Julian a text this morning at 5 am about it but I thought better of it....... I made it till 7 o clock or so before the shakes were so bad from withdraw that I had to text him....
I mirror the statements said about this being an amazing forum. As a matter of fact on my way to work this morning this is what I saw on a side street,

So I had to drive past to look at them. The boat on the lefts owner was on the pourch. We spoke for a few min and I told him I was on a forum that could answer any question about his boat... he immediately said. Jetboaters.net? He said he was a lurker on the site for awhile...

Just another testament of how well respected this forum is even by people who just lurk and not register...

Thanks again to all the administrators who make this place work...
