I don't know if the problem is my end, or on Hot boats end, but the site is extremely slow, and when I first log in I get a message that say I can't view the home page, I am going to try to post a test pic. well that didn't work, I have done it before It just sat there trying to upload,but never did.

I/we are painfully aware of the issues with the site, trust me. With the outage on Sunday and now these issues ever since, I'm re-evaulating everything.

I'm assuming the bulk of the issues are GoDaddy issues, but I'm not 100%.

This is as frustrating for me if not more. I have a substantial investment in this site and the last thing I envisioned was constant site access issues. With todays technology I just assumed things like this were a thing of the past. I'm quickly learning this isn't the case.

We started with Network Solutions, I opened an account at Hostgator, paid for who knows how long, never loaded the site there and then opened an account with GoDaddy. And we've had nothing but issues ever since. I just paid for dedicated hosting at GoDaddy and we are in the process of moving the site, again. We are confident dedicated hosting will resolve these issues. In hindsight, I should have started out with dedicated hosting.

All I can ask is that you please bare with us a little longer. I can assure you I am doing everything (short of buying Network Solutions...lol) possible to get this thing fixed so it can be enjoyed like its supposed to be.

Please do not stop reporting any issue or bug you notice. I'm not a bury my head in the sand kinda person. So lets figure out what the problems are so we can get them fixed!!

Thank you for your patience.

We appreciate the kind words that's for sure. GoDaddy responded to my Instagram post and everything seems to be rocking smooth now, thank you GoDaddy.

Now hopefully we can focus on content and not access.

Thanks all!!

Right on, he still rides, he also heads up the junior program, in fact we were supposed to go to Elsinore today, but he had to bail at the last minute, something with work, He is really a great guy.
