Our new Blog

Chuck Baier · 24-12-2007, 18:07

We have just set up a new Blog and have started with reprints of our series of articles that appeared in Soundings Magazine. The articles cover our trip from Florida, down the western Caribbean to Guatemala and the return to the US. Hope you enjoy them and we will continue to post as our new plans develop and we put them in motion.

Have a look at Voyages of Sea Trek

Hi Chuck

I'm not sure if its just the way my computer is showing your blog - I do have a big screen - but the orange box "Cruising does not always mean boisterous passages... etc" comes up very large on my screen and one needs to scroll down quite a way reading it.
The code shows its H1:

Code:

<h1  style="font-weight: bold;font-family:times new roman;">

Which gives 36pt font in Word.

If this is your intention thats fine

But sometimes things look great on your own computer and a bit weird on another computer.

I can email you screenshots if you like

Mark. The beginning of that piece in the orange box is the intro and is larger and includes the photos. But it does not take much to scroll down to the end on my computer, the one I use at work, My wifes laptop or any of our friends we have pull the site up on. Nor has anyone else mentioned this so not sure what to tell you.

MarkJ · 07-01-2008, 17:06

No worriers. If its intended, then its fine

Love the photos and stories

Love the big pic size when a photo is clicked on. can really see the detail

Glad you like it. We plan on adding much more, especially once we get under way again in March or April.

I'm already envious of your lifestyle! Keep on cruising!!

I must be the only one who finds this report "Cruising does not always mean boisterous passages or cocktails on the aft deck at sunset" distressing.

Chuck Baier · 07-01-2008, 20:36

Michael, Looked at a Willard Cutter on the left coast several years ago and almost bought it.

And you passed it by because........

Chuck Baier · 07-01-2008, 21:01

Decided to relocate to the right coast and not able to take the boat along. It is a good fit for a cruiser/live-aboard.
