I'm always happy to add more useful information. If you'd like to write
up some of the projects you've done, I'll be glad to add them to the web
site.

The easiest format is a text file and separate pictures files, with the
pictures named in the text where they belong. I'll turn it into a web
page from that.

When you search the archives using the built-in search capability, it
lists the results by how well it matches the search term(s), not by just
the subject line. See
http://lists.alberg30.org/mmsearch.cgi/public-list-alberg30.org?config=public-list-alberg30.org&restrict=&exclude=&method=or&format=long&sort=score&words=circumnavigations+circumnavigator+circumnavigation+circumnavigators
for an example of the results.

You get similar results when using the Google search of the whole site:
http://alberg30.org/searchResults.html?q=circumnavigations This searches
both web pages and the email archives, together.

When you click through to a message, you can click "thread" to see the
message in context with others.

Some days when work is particularly tedious I scroll through the Public List and often read whatever is up there. It is a great escape even when you aren't looking for help or advice on a project. I think it is great.

Hi John,

My view might be a bit more simplistic. The CBAA Handbook has a few pages dedicated to those who have taken Blue Water Cruises. To my knowledge these entries are not defined nor are they 'checked out' for accuracy or verification. My thought was to expand this concept a bit to list those who have sailed their A-30's around the globe. I didn't think about verifying the truth of the details or including a specific definition of 'circumnavigation'. I would have contacted each one of the skippers for the dates and perhaps the direction they took. I expected to take their word as the truth.

?

But if in doing so I am actually doing a disservice to those who by some 'universally accepted definition' actually did a 'circumnavigation' then?must I rethink the ?whole thing? My thought was to memorialize those three skippers who by their own admission sailed their A-30 around the globe by including a separate listing for them in the CBAA Handbook. Future readers of the Handbook while flipping through the pages would see the names of those skippers who sailed that far and think to themselves, Wow these boats must be that seaworthy and how cool is that, what a trip that must have been ..............Besides these skippers have contributed more to the CBAA than having accomplished the trip, they have in several cases contributed significant input?toward the routine upgrades all owners apply to their boats to make them safer and even more seaworthy.

?

Perhaps my?proposal of this entry into the CBAA Handbook requires a survey to determine if the idea is worthy and to define exactly how it should be accomplished. I was blindsided by the politics of the proposal. Sorry that I was so naive. How would you suggest I proceed?

Subject: Re: [Public-List] Circumnavigations

Circumnavigation is indeed an accomplishment, but defining it as such is
to a point arbitrary.

Stripped to it's basics, such a trip can be nothing more than a series
of shorter blue water voyages strung together. ?If a person crosses the
Atlantic Ocean 20 times, have they really accomplished less than a
circumnavigator?

Technically, a circumnavigation much touch antipodal points. ?If a trip
crosses all lines of longitude, every ocean, encompasses a "sufficient"
number of nautical miles to have gone all the way around, but does not
touch diametrically opposite points, it's not the true circle. ?Do such
skippers accomplish less?

Are you talking about "non-stop" circumnavigators, solo
circumnavigators, solo-non-stop, etc? ?Do we need special sections to
delineate these different "levels" of the accomplishment?

Food for thought...

John
