A word on Blogs

Freddie and I have been deliberating over what to do about blogs for months.
The problem is we both want to blog during the trip, but our motivations, content, and probably our audiences are quite different. We tried to work out a way to avoid having two blogs but it has proved unavoidable, and so we have one each.

I like the MailaSail one because it has the map and is very easy to update when we are offshore and only have a satellite phone connection.
Freddie (being a journalist) likes a more professional looking page and has set up a very nice one here,
http://smallhandsondeck.wordpress.com/

Her content is likely to be more family and personal orientated, while mine might be more about the boat, sailing and technical matters.

Apologies for the inconvenience for people who want to follow both, but we will try and cross reference each other when there is interesting content on each....
