    This brings up something I've wanted to suggest for awhile...

    Those of you who are out voyaging, if you'd like to post your flight plans...uh...sail plans, I'm sure we'd all be glad to get them and help track your location for friends and family, or whatever...

    I'm sure most of you already do something similar, somewhere else, but if you don't I'm sure the community here would be glad to help out...

    Might bring us all a little closer...:)

    Subject: [world-cruising] Location, this might be fun.

                    Thought it might be fun to see where everyone is while it is still cool out. If you go to Google Earth and enter in the Long-Lat it will zoom you in. Leave a space between the degree, min and sec and a coma between the North and west.
      Example:
      Where my boat is currently located: Dallas Bluff Marina
        
       31 35 24.25N, 81 18 07.00W
      Where I am moving my boat to this weekend: Cooper River Marina
        
       32 49 54.21N, 79 56 08.68W
      I would be interested to see where other boats are located.
       
      Cheers
