New projects added 7/17/08

Wow, its been a long time since an update, but I have lots of material to post over the next few weeks. Today, I added info and photos of an attempt to fix the sagging headliner in the aft cabin, and installation of a new gps chartplotter.

updates 2/23/2007

I can't wait for Spring. Watching sailing videos on youtube just isn't the same. I made a lot of updates to this site. The main change was to add a sql database to store trip data. Now, when you choose a trip on the trips page, it pulls the name of the kml file along with trip like wind speed, direction, distance travelled, max speed, ect. Unfortunately, I didn't have very good records from our first few months of sailing and some trips, like the circumnavigation of Fisher's Island, are missing. This year, I will take better notes. I also fixed the site so it works correctly in Firefox and IE.
Other additions include:

site launch 2/5/2007

This site is brand new, so not too much here yet... but check out the trips page for gps tracks plotted using google maps. Right now details like the trip lengths and speed don't display, but I'll be adding that when I have a chance.
