Original Post
I have started this link and/or blog to Help us Novice Sailors in SL as to where in the SL world is the best place for Sailing. What are the best boats? Where is the quality water for sailing? What are the sailing resources in SL? What is the Sailing Community in SL? Are their and Sailing Schools? Instructors? Acadamies? Navies?  :-). I have several boats (errmm "Vessels") both powered and sailing. But my interest lies mostly with sailing. I spent a fortune to find a piece of land which was big enough for a house and water property for a dock for my boats. I thought I was clever enough, by ensuring that my water opened into (or bordered) open goverment seas. But, I have found I can only sail for a short distance before I hit the proverbial end-of-the-World. I was hoping to Circunavigate SL and I can't even get out of my Region. Oh well, I digress. Any thoughts, help, or input for the Newbie Sailor?
