Howdy Mike! Welcome Aboard CF!
When I read your intro, the first thing that came to mind is you should learn about a CF
member who has spent many years
living aboard a cat with his
family and has cruised the East African coast extensively. Look for a
member with
screen name Bulawayo. He has a LOT of experience that may prove helpful to you and your goals. As I
recall he lives in Zimbabwe, but has a lot of time in Mozambique.
Below, I will post some tips I think you might find useful:
There is a free Cruiser's Wiki associated with this forum.
There is a LOT of free content in that wiki. Including "cruising guides."
My favorite tip:
Looking for Quick Answers?
This is the best and fastest method I have found to the answers I seek here.
Since you are relatively new to the forum, here is my favorite friendly forum search tip: Look at the green menu bar on the forum pages for the drop down "Search" menu. Click on that to drop down a list of search functions. From that drop down menu select the
GOOGLE CUSTOM search feature (the second box down) and then enter several different descriptive terms for your topic of interest. That will do a Custom
google search of ONLY this site and it is likely to find answers to your questions or results for you. Note: this is different from using the regular forum search box or field. Also note, this is NOT found if you use the CF app. It IS found if you use a web browser such as Safari, etc.
