From editorial@trawlersandtrawlering.com Mon Nov 20 11:00:05 2006 From: editorial@trawlersandtrawlering.com (Trawlers & Trawlering News Desk) Date: Mon, 20 Nov 2006 11:00:05 -0500 Subject: TN: Around the Loop and around the world at TrawlersAndTrawlering.com Message-ID: What's new at Trawlers & Trawlering in November 2006 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ T & T E X P R E S S ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Home port at http://www.trawlersandtrawlering.com -- Looking for the ideal boat for the Great Loop? -- What a circumnavigation of the world! -- Beebe's famed Passagemaker for sale -- Too funny for words -- Request a free trial copy of Power Cruising -- How to reach us -- How to unsubscribe ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Looking for the ideal boat for the Great Loop? ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ The quick answer is there is no ideal or perfect boat for cruising the America's Great Loop, but by using the checklist prepared by John and Judy Gill, you will be well on the way to enjoying the boating adventure of your life. http://www.trawlersandtrawlering.com/greatloop/theidealboat.html ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ What a circumnavigation of the world! ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Retired bison rancher Ben Gray and his two sons have concluded an incredible voyage around the world that ranks right up there with the amazing adventures of Tristan Jones. They arrived in Vancouver aboard the 57-foot Idlewild, completing a circumnavigation via the notorious Northwest Passage in less than one year. It's the first circumnavigation, power or sail, to have started far inland--and required portages just to reach the ocean. http://www.trawlersandtrawlering.com/news/idlewildcomplete.html ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Beebe's famed Passagemaker for sale ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Before he died in 1988, Robert Beebe designed more than 150 vessels, none more famed than his 67th design which he built for himself and named Passagemaker. The voyages Beebe made with Passagemaker proved his theory that the oceans of the world could be explored in a proper powerboat with greater comfort and dispatch than in a sailboat. http://www.trawlersandtrawlering.com/news/passagemakerforsale.html ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Too funny for words ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Click here to watch a video that will make you laugh--and cringe.
