I thought I had another month to get an article done for the next C-250 Mainsheet article, and I don't. It's pretty much due, um...now. Does anyone have a story they'd like to get into the Mainsheet, preferably with pictures, that you've already written? It's not crucial that we get an article in for the C-250 boats, but I'd really like to if we can. It can be a forum post (this is probably the best route for the short time frame), but I'm open for anything.

Let me know if you've got anything we can use.

Is there a unique feature or modification that you have done on your boat? Or, is there any special way you may handle sailing duties that are specific to your use? If so, take a couple of pix and cobble up a story. Often that is what I have to do as I don't birddog the other members modifications like I should.

Well, I wrote a story about my boat for the last Mainsheet, seems unfair to just write articles about my own boat. One of the guys has offered a story which I'm hoping I can use, but it might not be "technical" enough, I'm quizzing Russ about it. If all else fails, I can write up my recent drum to disc brake conversion which is certainly technical enough if not exactly boat related.

You can use my article about last summer's cruise to Cuttyhunk. Can re-submit the photobucket pictures so that they are better. Call me at 508-409-8258 if interested.

David, how about a public heads up of the next issue deadline.

That's a great idea Paul, I'm setting a reminder for myself and I'll post when the Mainsheet article deadlines are, maybe about a month out?

I've had several people tell me this in email as well, so I'll write up the article, get it submitted and hope it makes the cutoff. Assuming it makes it in Paul, I'll post a correction to make sure you get credit for the AC article you wrote for the winter issue. I feel bad that I failed to mention the author & it should be corrected.
