Well, I hope this is appropriate, and if not, please accept my apologies. As some of you may know, SailorTonyB, who posts on here quite regularly, bought a new (to him) 39' Allied Mistress. He asked Phil Prater (Nice 'n Easy on here) and I (I foolishly use my real name) if we'd like to help deliver it from the Tampa area in Florida to Kemah, TX. We're partway through, stopped in Mobile to fix some unexpected problems, and will hopefully be back on our way tomorrow. Nothing particularly outstanding has happened, and I'm sure one of us will give a full update when we get back. But, the REAL reason I'm writing this is to let those of you interested know about another web site, and follow our travels the next couple of days. Tony found www.shiptrak.org, that allows him to radio in our position (along with brief notes). Then our family and friends are able to follow our progress, as well as rest assured that we are safe. To see our progress, go to www.shiptrak.org, and at the "Callsign" prompt, put in Tony's call numbers "KC5SDI" (no quotes). I spoke with my wife, and she loved the site. The only down side is that my boss knows when I'm REALLY going to be back...
