Stop trying to show off your giant screen monitor capabilities
and reformat your site so we majority (real people?) can read it
without flipping every line of text back and forth on our trusty
14" monitors. 80 columns is enough, because we speed readers can
take it all in in a glance, if the colour contrast is good
enough. Think ergonomic users!

I read the first two lines and thought it not worth the bother,
sorry.

Please do not think that this offer of assistance is intended as
criticism.

Many amateur sites suffer from unpopularity for this reason.

So, is your site intended to be read, or is it just for your own
vanity?

Sorry you had trouble but almost any monitor can display 1028x768 which
is the resolution the site is designed for. It is easy to set your
monitor. Just click StartSettingsControl PanelDisplay. Click the
Settings tab and move the slider to 1028x768.

If you look around the site you will see that there is a LOT of
information on the 30 odd pages. Many of the pictures and CAD drawings
would be impossible to display at a lower resolution.

BTW, acording to Google, it is one of the most popular personal
boatbuilding sites on the web. I have had to upgrade my account to
20GB/month to accomodate the traffic.

Also it is not an ego trip. It is insurance to make sure I finish the
boat. If I quit I will look like a total jackass in front of millions of
web surfers. :-)

Just for another opinion, I think it's a pretty interesting site with a
lot of useful information, even for someone who will never use a
watermaker in his own life.

It gives inspiration to those who wonder about fabricating their own
ideas. Keep up the good work!

What I have been wondering about is this: why is the text wide and fixed? I
agree with you that large pictures and drawings *need* to be that large. But
simple text, should in my opinion 'flow' between the margings of the column.

I took a look at the code of your site and found that you define the columns
to fixed sizes. This is ok for a menu but a nuisance for the body text. I
have a similar setup, but only the menu column has a fixed width. The width
attribute for the body text is omitted and therefore the text flows nice in
whatever screen witdh it is viewed on.

Just a suggestion for easier reading.... ;-)

I'm not exactly sure how to do that. I use NetObjects Fusion because it
is a lot more powerful than most web page editors and fairly easy to use
but I have not really tried to get into it very far. It is hard enough
to find time to write up the text much less try to learn more tricks.

Mmm, don't know that software. I'm on the other side of the spectrum, using
Arachnophilia. Meaning I'm writing the html 'barefooted' with the occasional
help of a buttont that spits out an empty table or other html structure. I
even fiddled around with 'home-brew' style sheets....

The watermaker page is about 3 levels down. You can navigate there from
SystemsPlumbing.

That is very true. The Spade is one of the best anchors overall but no
single anchor is best for all bottoms. In soupy bottoms total fluke
area perpendicular to the rode's pull means a lot more than the most
refined geometry. When it comes to soft mud NOTHING beats the Danforth
set wide. All the Practical Sailor test showed it.

OTOH, the Danforths and Fortress patterns don't reset well. Everything
in boating is a compromise and this is one of them.
