On-Line sailing stories and Blogs

[davidpm]

On-Line sailing stories and Blogs are fun to read.
I've run across a few. I like reading about how folks solved the issues that have come up. Sometimes very innovative.

This is my favorite a fun read:
How THAT Came About - Part 1

I recently read part of:
* Confessions Online also interesting.

What else have you got?

There was one mentioned a couple weeks ago on this forum that I started and enjoyed but lost the reference.

Natural High - Interesting read about the building of a Tiki 38.. started off in Thailand, but the builder completely muffed things up and the owner had the hulls shipped back to New Zealand where he had all the issues fixed and at this point almost has the boat done.

David,
'That' was quite an adventure. I'm not quite finished with your second link yet. I'll let Don M. know you are distracting me from working on his boat.
Will check the other links soon.
Most recent:

This one is pretty amazing if you can sift through all the entries. A young Hungarian guy circumnavigates on a boat around 19'.

I follow 3 or 4, some are mentioned here. Mine really is not that interesting so I guess I live a little vicariously through others....

We keep a sailing blog that started out as a blog about the refit of our old Tartan 27. After some soul searching, we decided to sell the Tartan, our house and almost everything in it so that we could buy a bigger boat and move aboard with our dog Jet. We're spending the summer on the Chesapeake Bay and hope to make our way down the ICW to Florida, then hopefully over to the Bahamas.

We're currently ranked at #5 on the Sailingblogs.org website. We'd love you to check us out! Happy sailing!
