Hi group members.

I would like to announce you the creation of a special group for
inflatable boats. You are very welcome to join and make the group
interesting and growing.

http://groups.yahoo.com/group/inflatable-boats

Best regards,

Tim Bouman.

(I hope you forgive me this "publicity", but we all share the same
great passion in some way!)
