FOG  was formed in 2000 as a society without an executive or fees to offer an informal opportunity to share the joys and agonies of owning and using our Fishers.  We may not be big, or new, but we are mighty pleased with our boats and ourselves.

FOG maintains five distinct registries:

Eastern-  the Eastern seaboard from Florida to Newfoundand
Western -  the Western seaboard incl. Alaska and Texas
Associate - members of the mother group: Fisher Owners Association
"Other" - owners from all over the world
Former Foggers & Friends - those who were members and left the fold, or who want a Fisher

FOG  tries to do these things:

• maintain a list of Fishers and their owners in each region  See latest FOG News
• orchestrate annual rendevous and meetings in various locations  e.g. Special Report on the 2004 Conference, Roche Harbor event Sept 2005, Friday Harbor June 2006, and  Genoa Bay Rendevous September 2006
• maintain contact with the English builder, and other Fisher clubs
• offer a Bulletin Board for parts and service information
  (The group "fisherowners" http://groups.yahoo.com/group/fisherowners/ has been established on Yahoo.)
• offer information about Fishers For Sale
