Discuss class website and Wanted: Web Savy people to help USSailing One Design

Hello,

I was browsing through US Sailing's website and stumbled across their one design page. Growing up racing in northern michigan, I saw a lot of one design fleets start dying because of bad leadership, so this site really interested me. I have thought of an idea on how to help the one design website but do not have the web experience. I already contacted them and said they loved my idea but do not have a 'web person' to put it into action. Since Lasers are the biggest one design class in america from my calculations and since I'm a laser sailor, I thought lasers should start the initiative to improve the one design site and since we'd be 'improving the site,' obviously our class would be the first class to benefit.

So, if you would be interested in helping out One Design Sailing in the US, please contact me at [email protected]

Thank you,
Tom

I also think it is time to beef up our class website. What do other people think?

Below are the links to US Sailing One design page:

About the class website. Here is our class website and here are some other ones. Please put in your imput.

I think suggestions on how to improve the website are a great idea. The class office is already considering improvements to the class website and will certainly welcome helpful comments, suggestions, ideas, etc. To help this, besides posting replies here it would also help to forward those comments to [email protected] so they will get it directly as well.
Thanks!

Tracy
