The Voyage of Spray and Capt. Joshua Slocum

Greetings,

I have just completed a little project and would welcome some feedback/suggestions for improvement.

I have created a textually enabled map of the voyage of Joshua Slocum the first man to circumnavigate the world single-handed.

This interactive adventure is divided into 8 segments or "legs". This is not just a path to follow, rather, it is an opportunity for the "adventurer" to explore the world through modern eyes from the perspective of Capt. Slocum.

There are over 100 waypoints. Each waypoint has excerpts from Capt. Slocum's book Sailing Alone Around the World.

Follow the voyage of Captain Joshua Slocum on his historic quest to become the first man to circumnavigate the globe alone.

And let me know what you think!

Thanks,

Osp

NOTE: this really was designed for Google Earth... Google maps works ok, but you do not maximize advantage of the details and the oblique views.
