But then again how many members would stick their hand up to fill positions? Have this in a non boating club,plenty moaning but when time comes to stick hand up many just sit on them.

last 2 vessels had ploughs and never trusted them . Had more than enough chain.,I seem to find that can/bottle etc never dug in even added more chain.The only time it set was in Man o war only to find next morning we had hooked the cable to pakatoa,managed to retrive it. Ended up with a kewene ,no issue.
