T&T: US Regulations for Boats Over 20 meters

[Mike Maurice]

I have been pretty busy rebuilding my C drive of about 100 gigabytes 
after it got scrambled. Last night I finally got the web site tools 
working and the first project was to update the Over 20 Meter page.

The links have been updated to the generally most recent US government 
pages, which means 2007. It has been several years since I updated this 
page, some of the links no longer worked. The Perko link may not be 
working and that is a whole nother story for another day.

The long term solution to these kinds of link changes is to use gpo 
access links that use the gpo intermediate processor to take you to the 
latest material. The second part is to put the links themselves in a 
separate database from the text explanations and build a tool to check 
them out and fix them in an easier manner, that's a long term project 
which won't happen soon...

In the meantime enjoy the updated material.

BTW, I recovered almost all the data on the scrambled drive. The trick 
was a SATA/IED drive to USB adapter cable where you can hook a drive up 
external to Windows or the operating system and use software tools to 
get the data. The cables are about $15, the Model is EN2535A. I would 
not go to sea without one. Consider this a must have for long range 
cruising and computers.

Regards,
Mike
