Welcome to OYCOA!
For people who own, have owned, propose to own or have any connection with vessels built by a company called 'Offshore Yachts'. The aim of this website is to be a useful tool to aid members in maintaining their vessels, the organisation of meetings and a centre for knowledge of Offshore Yachts.
The webmaster (me) welcomes content submissions and ideas of any kind - Every page on the site is a work in progress. Without user participation, this is just another website - With active support from members, it will become a great support and rebuilding mechanism for our association!
Some site features:
- Newsletter archives dating back to 1970
- OYCOA has had a quite remarkable membership over the years and the vessels we sail are exceptional classics. This has lead to some interesting annual publications on paper, now saved online in pdf form. Members have access to this repository of knowledge.
- Passage Planning Forum
- Members can share their plans and arrange rendez-vous in a private, members forum. Visitors can participate in our public forum.
- Members' Articles
- Our Flagship Article "Zeeland and back" is a great example of what can be achieved. Tutorials on authoring for the web are very very near completion. Until then, please supply your content in whatever form you can :)
