and information about the shanty are just below the control button. Make sure you
have your computer's speakers turned on to hear it.

The Sailors Place Blog - This is a place for me to relate
my experiences sailing the Bay Area and the Northern California Delta. One
of the first things I have done on the T-S-P BLOG is a narration of the 9 day
trip I made this past September (2006) to the Delta with 4 other boats from
the Richmond Yacht Club. This is also a chance for you to share your
experiences and make comments on my comments.

some tips I thought might come in handy while you work on your boat. As I
come up with good places and persons to do maintenance on your boat and more
tips I will put them here.
