      With 39 pages of past discussions on this forum ( I know most of you rarely even go there) it can be a bit time consuming finding info on a specific subject matter. Not to mention you guys do…..occasionally……change the subject! But that OK, I’m just saying! There is a search page and I’m having trouble sorting out how to use it.

      https://www.pearson424.org/bb2forum/search.php

      When I enter a subject like….”Hood in mast furling”….or “in mast furling” or “IMF”…..I get results of multiple pages and subjects but not necessarily about IMF ????? Any hints someone can pass on?

      I’m trying, as a new P424 future owner and new to this group, to utilize the site as much as I can before I “attempt” to start a discussion about something you guys no doubt, have talked about over the past years.

      Can anybody help me “search”…….before I blather on?

      Pat? Any ideas?

      I’m not being terse. This is from my mobile.

      Your efforts are duly noted and appreciated, Ken. I expect few of us know
      how to search the databases. (Some of us didn’t even know we had searchable
      databases.) Most of us just blather on. So, what do you want to know?

      Ken, I think what Tor said is about right – our site is more for
      discussion. Your best bet is to just ask. If we have already discussed it
      we’ll just point you to the thread, or, being old and forgetful start a
      whole new discussion.
