Re: Is It Time to Stop Sailing?

One comment on allergists. Your condition is extreme so I'd highly recommend an allergy center that is part of a teaching university hospital, not just an allergist. The average allergist you find...

Re: Documentation of Sailing Experience

I had to go back and find proof of ownership of old boats. Thing is that it's all there, somewhere, just hard to fin. Go back to thinking of who you bought it from and was it registered ever or just...

Re: A fine for a not registered 10ft dinghy? FL-US

You could register them in the US. You couldn't document them, but state registration doesn't care about your home address.

Re: Anxiety from Offshore Cruising

Re: Sea Tow: Only for milquetoasts?

Re: Oil Filter may have killed my engine

Re: Garmin just purchased ActiveCaptain

I agree. Active Captain is far superior to any other sites. Waterway Guide and Cruisers Net are great for the very small part of the world they cover.

We sign NDA's all the time with software...

Re: Garmin just purchased ActiveCaptain

Re: Garmin just purchased ActiveCaptain

Let's temper our reaction. Too much "the sky is falling." As you said, the data is freely available and the only thing we know at this time is the AC interface with Polar Navy is going to end. Does...

Re: Can non-drinkers be cruisers?

Re: Your ideal inflatable tender - please reply

Re: Can non-drinkers be cruisers?

Re: Should there be mandatory liability insurance for boats?

I'd suggest you find a good marine insurance broker. Since you're US and your boat is US, I'd start with one in South Florida. They'll be able to go through the various carriers and advise you on how...
