Old issues of magazine

Post by Jaycb »

My membership fee is on its way to Keith and I wondered if there is access to old magazines in the "member's area", or indeed anywhere else? From what I've read on the forum there must be a wealth of info available - would be a useful resource. Anyone know please?

After a couple of issues, I tend to pass mine onto new owners, as an incentive to join!

I collect the spare magazines we have and then we take them to the Alexandra Palace Dinghy Show to hand out. There will be a number of back issues at the show if you are going.
Cheers

That was one of the original ideas for the Members Area, however the trouble is we don't currently have any issues in PDF form that could be uploaded to the site.

Its something I've been meaning to raise with George now he has taken over the reigns of the magazine but haven't got around too it.

To respond to Martin's comments ; I have electronic versions of several of the 'Darticles' and all of the 'Newsprints' which Paul created as editor. I could write any pages of tips etc. to pdf for uploading onto the website. For stuff not in electronic format, it would be easy enough to scan the hard copies to pdf for the website if a little time consuming - any volunteers? As for the hard copies of more ancient back issues, I'm sure there are some long standing members who have a well stocked library - mentioning no names, Erling!
