    Gotta say that the Google Earth info is very much appreciated. Other (lesser) sailing channels seem to assume that the kind viewer knows where the sailing vessel is located, and is familiar with the nearby geographical surroundings. That not usually being the case, I'll feel compelled to Google Map the area out of curiosity ... thanks for explicitly displaying all of that for us.

    We visited Folegandros in '73. Wunt much there. We figured that there were lodgings for about eight tourists. A local in Athens told us about the island, but travel agents acted as though they'd never heard of it. We fed on the best bread and butter along with any fish we speared. We discovered that parrot fish were good-eating when we removed the metallic-tasting skin. I vividly remember having spent a few days just lying on the beach reading "The Electric Kool-Aid Acid Test"... quite the page-turner for me at 24. ;-)

    after all your sailing if you could go back to the start would you buy a bigger boat, or do you think 28' is a good size for a solo sailer. I'm 55. and I just bought a 21' to learn to sail I hope to buy a bigger boat in two years. in your opinion with someone having only two years of experience would you buy a bigger boat or something around 30'

    out of curiosity, what is that spool of flat webbing on the cockpit rail? Ive seen them on a few boats but never seen them in a store or anything to see what they are, etc. i assume its safety related, like a deployable line for a life ring, etc? or something for swimming to make sure you stay tethered to the boat? enlighten me, please.
