Meeting with Tony Bogan

[shrimpman steve]

Sport,
I consider you a friend and respect your opinion even though I disagree. I attended the meeting and very much respect Tony B., he has been doing this for many years. As I stated publicly, I wanted protests and publicity. After speaking with Tony and Jimmy I have shifted my focus. What we need is money and membership, this is what keeps the commercial fleet in the forefront. Every one need to do what they feel is best, but I think it is time to join the rfa and suppoert the ssfff in large numbers. I will be taking a few days to figure out some kind of fundraising and membership drives for both orinizations. I have a call into capt Adam and am waiting to hear what he has to say about the RFA. In the meantime you must do what you feel is right and I must work to change your mind. We have a lot of members on this site and if we could get a large percentage to get on board who knows what can happen.

I will be in touch with dales shortly to get his ideas on said fundraisers and membership drives. With numbers, anything is possible.

PS Thanks to all who have already joined and contributed due to this one thread!
