Default Google Earth Presentation of BlueJacket's Cruising

I've spent a lot of time creating a Google Earth presentation of
BlueJacket's cruising routes. This includes locations from Maine to
Florida and virtually all of the Caribbean. The placemarks include text
snippets from the logs and then link to the entire log as well as photos
from the area. The logs from most of the US east coast and eastern
Caribbean are pretty thin, but the photos are good. Everything gets much
better starting in the southern Caribbean.

Anchorage placemarks utilize anchor icons, placemarks which include diving
information have dive flag icons, and land based travel utilize either sign
posts, Myan pyramids or airplanes. Icons are grouped by region / country /
state or year.

I would appreciate any feedback before I post this on my web site.

You can access the GoogleEarth KMZ file at:

If you don't have Google Earth yet, you can download it at:

Note that you need a reasonably fast computer and a broadband connection.

Me too, but don't it make you want to haul up the anchor and head south to
warm water and sun?
