Sailing Gadgets

http://sailinggadgets.wordpress.com/

This blog is all about gadgets, used on boat or yacht. New navigation software and hardware, video equipment, electronic charts, communication, AIS, GPS etc. I’m not a pro sailor. I started sailing just 2 years ago, but I participate now different offshore races on our ORC Grand Soleil 42R, fast and beautiful yacht. Many skippers and sailors are concentrating on sailing only. I try to find how technology can make it better, more interesting and safer. And all that in reasonable budget. Enjoy!
