You could say I'm not a happy camper today...

Something I found worthwhile, an interesting riff on intelligence, and a truly great post from Antonio Dias...

Last night I saw that the French powers-that-be are back on the "Let's tax boaters for anchoring so they'll all go away" bandwagon. You can read more about (if you don't read French simply run the page through Google Translate) it over on the Voile magazine blog and more importantly there's a petition  that you should add your voice to. Seriously, this is important stuff if you're someone who ever plans to go cruising.

Really...

Speaking of important stuff in the same vein, Dave Z (of TriloBoat infamy) recently said a lot of important stuff that very much needs to be said. You should read it and give the content some very serious thought and then share it with others... It's more than time to get seriously proactive on this sort of stuff before we find our favorite anchorages either disappeared or with a MegaYachts only sign.

So it goes...
