Liveaboard Magazine
This 25 year-old magazine
is dedicated to the liveaboard lifestyle. Log on,
subscribe, and let them know I sent you. I'm working on a
free subscription, here! ;-)
Latitudes and Attitudes
Magazine
One of the few rags that I
read from cover to cover. Bob Bitchin is the editor of a
magazine that brings home the cruising dream. Subscribe if
you need motivation for living aboard a boat! Keep
checking the 2003 editions because I have an article
appearing in one of them! Bob hasn't told me in which
issue he'll publish my article because he doesn't want me to
let my subscription expire!
Liveaboard Magazine
Ok...I know that there's
another "Liveabard Magazine" listed at the top of this
list. This is a different, on-line version edited by
different people.
Intellicast
So you want to know what
the weather is doing? Where the best place to sail is?
This is the site for you!
The Liveaboard Association of
Puget Sound
These guys are fighting
for their rights to liveaboard! They're fighting
environmentalists, the State of Washington, and Microsoft
executives who wish to end a 100-year tradition. Visit
their site and help out if you can!
Defender Industries
West Marine is fine, but
they charge WAY too much! Defender has been around since
Columbus crossed the great pond, and they're in bed with a
LOT of manufacturers. If you have a boat, you MUST get
their catalog!
Prime Climb Mast Systems
I don't endorse many
products, but this one is a must-have for sailboaters. With
Prime-Climb, you can climb the top of your mast without
installing permanent steps.
Debbie and Ians' Homepage
Debbie and Ian are good
friends of mine. They're both English, though neither
was born there. They are full-time cruising
liveaboards and have spent the last two years as my
neighbors.
Pete and Kerrys' Homepage
Both friends of mine.
They did well in the dot com boom in California (remember
those days?) and cashed out before it all tanked.
Bought a boat in Jacksonville, moved aboard, and sail around
from time to time.
Docking Simulator
Hey, a LOT of people made
fun of me as I was learning to dock Candide in her slip.
Well, if you think that you can do better, I urge you to try
this Web site. It's a Java applet that simulates the
docking experience. Have fun!
Bottom Job
This guy draws comics
about boating. There's a new cartoon posted every
week. Pretty funny stuff!
7Knots
If your sailboat is
cruising at 7 knots, you should be in hog heaven! This
site is dedicated to folks who are 1) looking for a sailboat to
cruise on or 2) have a sailboat but looking for crew. It's
a match-making service for the cruising community.
And, yes, you can search by sex!
Capt'n
Sterling's Everglades Tour
If you're going to be in the
South Florida area, you've gotta take a tour with Capt'n
Sterling! You'll see alligators, snakes, mangroves,
etc. All up close and personal!
Take Her Sailing!
This is the homepage of Trish
Lambert, who has cruised extensively for years (including
aboard a Hans Christian!). She writes a bimonthly
newsletter to which you can subscribe. She also has
helpful eBooklets for sale about the cruising lifestyle.
