Mark Twain Finally, after 6 years with this website, I add the Link page I intended from the beginning. As you can see from my philosophy page, I can be a bit anachronistic, sometimes verging on being a Luddite. However, I make an exception to my anti-technology viewpoints when it comes to the internet: perhaps the greatest aid sharing cruising information ever. So, below are the various sites I have found that are useful for gathering more info.
Soggy Paws is a CYS 44, a boat of similar vintage, size, and design purpose as Fellow Traveler. I first met them in Panama, and have "bumped into" them several times on the internet since as they maintain a lot of pertinent cruiser info on their site, such as the Cruisers Guide to Ecuador. It was a pleasure to meet up with them in person again in Gambier, and we "traded" information...meaning they gave me a ton of good stuff and I loaned them a few old magazine articles. Sherry, the IT expert of the boat, searched numerous sources, including cruisers blogs, to create a "Compendium" on the Tuamotus that has more information than any guide. Dave, the onboard mechanic, has written extensively about his modifications, improvements, and repairs to Soggy Paws that anyone fixing up an older boat to cruise should review. Most cruisers know this site, as it has the most extensive data base on the countries cruisers will ever likely visit, including entry procedures, basic facilities, and links for more info. A free site for linking crew and boats. These guys helped me design and did the code for this website in it's initial form. While the basic layout has not changed, nearly everything else has, so the spelling and other errors belong to me. I highly recommend them if you need website design. This is the designer of the dinghy I discuss on the DINGHY page. They have some excellent designs for tenders, ranging from 7 to 12 feet, including nestling ones for those with limited space.
