As part of another project, I've been doing a "mashup" of Google Maps to build an online log (as opposed to blog)for cruising boats. The idea being that someone on the boat posts regular position reports to a website, which plots the position of the boat using Google maps. That way, friend and family can follow progress by checking that web site. As I'm "crewing" on Belage, I thought that would be a good opportunity to trial the sytem. We're bound to have a glitch or two, and we'll find out whether it is practical to upload position every four hours or so. Follow along here and at the Skipr site.
Great site enjoyed the commentary. Say hello to Peter Styles for me. I have sailed with him on Belage and met you at Mooloolaba on one of those passages. Tim Armytage and I are departing RPAYC about the 18th Feb heading for Hobart on Cala Luna.
