Welcome to Power Catamaran List, the first-ever forum on the Net devoted to voyaging, cruising, chartering, trailering, fishing, and living aboard power catamarans of all makes and all types. Power Catamaran List is an interactive forum for the exchange of information, ideas, and inspiration. The List is also a lot of fun, and it can be addictive. Power Catamaran List was founded and is sponsored by Georgs Kolesnikovs of Water World Productions, publisher of custom magazines, producer of special events, and host of interactive mailing lists. Power Catamaran List is the official forum of PowerCatamaranWorld.com, a new site under construction. Power Catamaran World, Power Catamaran List and the abbreviation PCW are trademarks of Water World Productions. Unauthorized use is prohibited by law. The gateway link for learning about and joining Power Catamaran List is http://lists.samurai.com/mailman/listinfo/power-catamaran If you have friends or dock neighbors who are interested in power catamarans, please give them this link. HOW AN INTERACTIVE MAILING LISTS WORKS The operation of Power Catamaran List is quite simple and straightforward. Essentially, what one posts to the List all subscribers receive as email. To post to the List, send your email to: power-catamaran@lists.samurai.com In many ways, a mailing list functions similarly to a newsgroup/bulletin board/discussion group. You read what you want and skip what doesn't appear interesting. Unlike newsgroups on the Net, a mailing list is much more focused on the topic of interest--i.e., voyaging, cruising, chartering, trailering, fishing, and living aboard power catamarans--of the people who subscribe to the list. But it does have rules, regulations and procedural policies as outlined below. They have been developed over the last eight years in operating other lists with as many as 1,600 subscribers each. The purpose of the rules is to maintain order and ensure the forum serves as a valuable resource for all. RULES OF CONDUCT By subscribing to Power Catamaran List, you agree that you will not post: a) Messages which libel, defame, abuse or threaten others, or are inflammatory. b) Statements that are bigoted, hateful or racially offensive. c) Material that advocates illegal activity or discusses illegal activities with the intent to commit them. d) Unauthorized copyrighted material. e) Material that contains vulgar, obscene or indecent language or images. f) Advertising or any form of commercial solicitation. g) Material that does not pertain to voyaging, cruising, chartering, trailering, fishing, and living aboard power catamarans. h) Attachments of any type or size. You also agree to not attempt to use subscriber addresses for mass-mailing purposes or any commercial solicitation. Please follow the rules of conduct or your subscription will be terminated. OTHER POLICIES AND PROCEDURES In addition to the rules shown above, we also request members to conform to the following policies: 1) Snip those quotes! When replying to a Power Catamaran List post please keep material quoted from previous posts to the minimum required for clarity. For more information go to: http://lists.samurai.com/pipermail/trawlers-and-trawlering/2001-December/042066.html 2) Computer virus discussions are off limits on the List! For more information go to: http://lists.samurai.com/pipermail/trawlers-and-trawlering/2001-December/042068.html 3) Please set your email program to Plain Text. Fancy formatting such as HTML, Rich Text, or MIME will be automatically stripped from your post but its remnants could cause it to be blocked by certain anti spam/virus filtering programs. 4) Don't cross-post! Cross-posting is not allowed on Power Catamaran List. If you wish to transport a topic from another list please do so with the appropriate background material and a new subject line. [If your post's subject line identifies it as coming from another list it will be automatically blocked by our software.] 5) Please use a properly descriptive subject line. For more information go to: http://lists.samurai.com/pipermail/trawlers-and-trawlering/2001-December/042066.html 6) Please keep your signature block (sig) short. Keep in mind that your post is being read by many people and, if you're an active poster they will be seeing it over and over again. Four lines is the standard for good form on Power Catamaran List and on the Internet as a whole. 7) Be VERY careful about humor. While everyone likes a good laugh it's important to remember that our membership is worldwide and made up of people of numerous races, creeds, religions, and nationalities. Also keep in mind that this is a text-only medium and that something that's funny in person can come across as mean-spirited when stripped of intonation, expression, and/or body language.
