Don't know about online sites for help... why don't you just leave the boat on it's mooring (or trailer) and tell them they're doing a great job!! ![]()
Just remember Nick, we were all young and stupid once, and we will ALL be old and stupid at some stage.
It just takes care and patience, and if you don't have that, don't volunteer.
