I have a keen interest in websites about cruising. Our site here is far from what it could be. As a way to expand my own horizons and to (in)validate some ideas, I've been actively looking for examples of useful websites. I hope to list at least one site per week here and give a short review of the site as well as a link to the site, of course. Your comments and pointers to other sites are welcome, of course.
This week, I had a look at the website of the RMYC at Port Hacking. Their cruising site seems to be managed by cruising members, clearly with a passion for cruising as well as their local area. The Port Hacking Cruising Guide is an ambitious project for a group of volunteers. While incomplete, it already looks to be a valuable resource for anyone planning a cruise to Port Hacking. There is much more to Port Hacking than just Jibbon Beach.
While there are some things which we need not emulate (navigating the site is a bit haphazard, showing members contact details online), they don't take themselves too seriously, which is something we can occasionally only aspire to!
I like the site and its spontaneity. It makes me want to visit Port Hacking.
