Hi all;
I am new to boating and to this forum. I am finding a wealth of information here at the BoaterEd forums and truly appreciate having it. Having some trouble, though, and hoped you could help.

First, I cannot find a 'search' box anywhere so I can look through old, topic specific threads.

Second, I paid the extra money for a subscription but never recieved any confirmation and still cannot use the features that the subscription should entitle me to (contacting members, etc.).

Any thoughts on these would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks,
Steve
 
the search box is at the very bottom of the page.
 
Sometimes it takes a week or two before you get your "anchor" showing you are a paid member.

The search function ain't so hot. Got a question...ask.
 
Les seems to have been kinda MIA recently, I hope everything is OK with him.

It's been at least a month since he's updated new members. I know this is the busy season, but we need some semblance of being current with RO's and anchors.
 
Welcome Steve, in the past the Anchor subscription starts on the day that it's added by Les, not the day you made the request. So, although it's disappointing at least it will still be a FULL year or two (Depending on which option you took)

Not me; I'm all set. Just concerned for all the new RO's and anchor purchasers.
 
Thanks, all, for your responses. I'll just have to give Les a little more time. In the meantime, what is an 'RO', please? I figured out 'OP'. Is there a list of these abbreviations somewhere?

Thanks yet again!!
 
"In the meantime, what is an 'RO'"

"Registered Offender"

though it might be "Random Obfusticator"
 
RO = Republican Only. ;0)

Just kidding, Registered Offender. There's a story behind that.
 
I`ll throw my issue in here in case it gets checked on, I`ve posted before but without results, I`ve got my anchor , but I`m still denied access to the member only forums.
 
Hey Steve,

Welcome to the forum. Where in Pa do you boat?
 
Steve,
Sorry for the delay just the nature of the beast here. Les runs in many directions this time of year, the good news is this is by far the best boating site on the internet.

The members here are very bright, and have a ton of knowledge to share, be patient, the reward will be huge!!!

Welcome to Boater Ed

Registered Offender, eh? I am curious how that one came about. Of course, Random Obfuscatee suits me much better!

My wife and I just got our first boat, a 1987 Carver Santego 2767. We bought her in Baltimore and brought her up the Delaware to the Neshaminy State marina for a couple of weeks to get use to her and get her outfitted. Two weeks ago, my brother and I brought her around New Jersey and up to Barnegat (Waretown, NJ, actually) where we have her slipped for the season at Holiday Harbor Marina. Seems like a VERY nice place! We did get a late start to the season but are definitely looking forward to making the most out of what's left! Anyone here familiar with the Barnegat Inlet? It's a bugger! We bought the boat 300 miles with no trouble til we got there. Guess I got a lot of 'local knowledge' to pick up on!
 
Welcome, Steve. and always bring your sense of humor when reading our posts. or you will probably get offended by a thing or ten......

Enjoy your [shortened] boating season!
 
As you will see, we hail from all over and everyone of the routine posters has proven their interest in helping make your boating experience the very best. Many of the "regulars" have been here for several years. As suggested before, always bring a sense of humor and a smile. All we all can do is try. Warm welcome from South Florida !
 
For searching, you can sometimes have luck using Google and adding “boatered” to your search request. This can be done without the anchor.
 
But I don't think the NBR fun can be found that way?

Steve!
Welcome aboard from the Maine seacoast! Enjoy your season (sounds like you're off to an awesome start) and have fun here on BE! Great people - great info!
Cheers -
Yet another Steve
