Or more accurately, how does it rank as far as sending visits to TheBeachcats.com, which is pretty much the same thing. icon_biggrin

Who wants to try and list the ten US states that sent the most people to TheBeachcats.com during the last 366 days?

Extra credit for getting them in order!

Not bad, 6 out of 10, your list has four states not in the top ten. You have included the top three, but not in order. (and not your top three)

Who's next?

Actually Canada is the number two visiting country. I'm not sure what a Province is, but here's a list of areas, just for you.

There are only 10 provinces. Same as states really, actually with more autonomy than states. Each is almost its own country in terms of governance. The main reason our taxes are so much higher than the US. Population density or lack thereof is another big reason.

Yeah, I'd rank Hawaii pretty low (like off the list). Depending on the island, you may not get a beach to put the "beach" in "beach cat". And if you do get a beach, you may not get favorable wind. I had a much easier time bopping around Texas, finding a place to launch, than I do here in Hawaii.

The catch to this is that he is talking about the number of people who have joined in the past year- not current or total members... Damon is a sly one!

on1hullMy guess

1) Florida
2) California
3) Texas
4) Georgia
5) Michigan
6) Illinois
7)Colorado
8)louisana
9)South Carolina
10) North Carolina

Seven out of Ten

Time for a hint. Some states have come up a lot but are NOT in the top ten.

South Carolina
Louisiana
Minnesota
Wisconsin
New Jersey

There have been other wrong answers, but here's another hint. There is one top ten state that has only been listed by Bacho and Motivated.

The catch to this is that he is talking about the number of people who have joined in the past year- not current or total members... Damon is a sly one!

Not in this case, no tricks. heiligenschein

We are talking visits to the website, not number of members or number who have joined, but actual page loads from the various states and countries.

There are a couple of states that most (not everyone) has missed. States that border water, either salt or fresh, and have reasonable population. icon_cool

Now anyone want to guess the US State that is dead last in visits to TheBeachcats.com?

Bonus points for giving humorous reasons about why they would be last. rofl2

Nope, and I'll take either of the bottom two states since they are a virtual dead heat for lack of Beachcats.

I'm getting tired of the thread.

Bottom five states (in order) by total visits for the last 366 days are:

North Dakota
Wyoming
Alaska
West Virginia
South Dakota

Just for fun, bottom five countries (out of 196).

Nepal
Saint Pierre and Miquelon
Palau
Tonga
Yemen

Someone needs to start promoting beachcat sailing in those places! icon_razz

So for Tonga to rank ahead of Yemen means that someone from Tonga actually logged onto the website? I find that humorous in and of itself. WTF?
