We are all more or less new persons in 505, but we hope we can bring new ideas and energy in the association. The old guys are tutoring us when necessary.
We have quote a few activities planned for the coming year. A lot of it is around the boat exhibition in February. We plann to make a publication to activate new memebers, we try to get passive boats into the market and we have new web -pages under way.
We would very much appreciate, if you could provide me contacts where to get good looking photos for our publication and if anyone has a nice video we could use during the exhibition.
If you have any questions or wishes, please do not hesitate to contact me.
Best regards,
Arno Parviainen
