Google Earth - sailing cruising logs
 

http://www.paticat.com/googleearth.html

"The following is a link to a special Google Earth file which has been
a labor of love during the last couple of months. I have spent hours
reading our journals and logs and created detailed tracks of our
passages, and approximate coordinates for all the locations PatiCat
anchored during our ownership between 2001 and 2004. (NOTE: do NOT use
this data for navigation purposes as they are NOT based on actual GPS
coordinates during our trip, but approximations only)."

"After you've installed Google Earth, download this file. You
can open the folders in the Places sidebar and turn on and off
passages or anchorages. If you select an anchorage it will most likely
show you a link to the web pages here at Paticat.com telling you about
our visit to that island country or location. Or, it may give you
useful cruising tips for that anchorage."

Awesome!! This should be the new way of sharing routes and adventure
reports.

So did you have to subscribe to Google Earth Plus for the path feature
no?

Paths are only in the Plus and above version.

Very cool, Mic. Like a map/voyaging version of an annotated PDF.

I can see this becoming a standard feature of most passagemaking web
pages.
