Just reading the minutes of the last National Fleet Captain's Meeting and I noticed the answer to a question that I've been seeking for quite a while.... How many boat owning members of BIFFA do we have??
The answer is... 360. To be honest, I cant decide if that's good or bad ! I think the last figure I recall for the number of Fleets is 52. That gives an average Fleet Membership of BIFFA of about seven.
I wonder how many of our Datchet boat owners belong? So what do you think? If you don't belong, is it out of apathy or do you not hold a strong opinion on it?

ReplyDeleteMaybe it is apathy and no strong opinion is held.
