Subject: Wrapping up Baba-L

If all goes according to plan, this is the last note from Baba-L. Bruce
Pappas located a web site, SailJazz.com, operated by Sam and Cheryl Boyle,
which will become the new home for what was Baba-L. SailJazz is a web site
for and by sailors and it has an extensive collection of make and model
specific message forums including "baba". To take a look at the new home, try
http://www.SailJazz.com

Moving to SailJazz offers a chance to touch on sailing issues in general
(there are excellent articles, in the main areas, by well known writers) as
well as more focused forums. Additionally, these forums exist as e-mail
forums, much as happened with Baba-L, and as web accessable message areas.
Best of all, those who opt for e-mail will see web postings and vice versa.

Additionally, using SailJazz's baba forum offers serveral features which have
been asked for in the past. Baba (not Baba-L) messages are being archived and
new messages can be received individually or in digest form. And this move
also allows baba-related e-mail to be offered again to folks on AOL.

So, what do you have to do? Basically, sit back and enjoy the ride. The
Baba-L address list will be ported to SailJazz. At some point you should
browse the site, adjust your account to your liking, and, of course, have a
look around the site. I think you'll like it.

If you do not wish to use this new site, please advise me of your choice no
later than noon (EDT), 2 May (this coming Monday). I'll drop your address
from the list before it's transmitted to SailJazz.

It's been a fun ride with Baba-L and I'll be sorry to lay it down. I'll be
posting to baba, of course, but just as one more face in the crowd. My thanks
go to all the people who've helped over the years - you've all made Baba-L a
nice place to be. And now that place is "baba".


Cheers,
   Rick
