You also gain access to use of the BP yacht and helicopter. Make sure you schedule pretty far ahead of time for the chopper if you want it for a weigh-off. It gets pretty busy in October. Contact Steve Marley for booking a date. Let me know if you need his number.

The biggest benefit is you supporting a site that we all rely on. Now that I am getting involved with internet hosting and web development I realize how many dollars it takes to keep this site going. Notice no google ads..very little incoming dollars to offset the cost. Do you realize just the cost of connection speed to get these pages to load so fast. How many hours do you spend here per year..is the info you are getting worth a few cents per hour. I can see a new grower hesitant about paying membership, but if you have been a regular for years...you better pay to keep this going.

In addition to connection speeds there is hardware. In the past three years I have probably about 600 diary entries. At about 2mb per entry..with pictures those 600 entries take 1.2 Gb storage space. Have you priced HDD or SSD's lately. Do a search what 1Gb of storage costs. Ken does not diary entries. He has to keep buying more storage. My paying premium membership doesn't even cover the storage of my journal. There is more costs in hardware, nothing to say about the time to keep this going. Don't be freeloader. The effort and dollars to make this happen is immense.

I wish that board posts could be edited like diary posts. Instant diary post, using the app I can see what I typed correct typo's. Insert a delete up above and drop it in the right place...calling for the BP chopper.
