But do you ever get out to sail? ;-) Yep Great links Well some are better than others, but when they contribute to the knowledge of sailing - they are all good. and I hope you're maintaining pages that I can peruse when I get a chance (see cruisenews.net for an example.) Nope, as there are some out there that do that rather well;} , contributing here seems to contribute elsewhere - a good thing, an additional reason for sharing the topics I am researching. Some seem to confuse the links I provide as making me an authority on a particular topic or advocating something. ______________________ "Thinking is the most effective least expensive thing you can do." ______________________ BTW I looked up "sailboat buoyancy" and went through some 800 links with the posted results. Where the results comprehensive? No. Did I learn something? Yes DANG, just lost another couple of hours. Happens every time I check to make sure that the link's good.
