The U.S. Coast Guard Navigation Center announces upcoming changes to the Local Notice to Mariners (LNM) and the Light List, as part of our efforts to modernize and improve the accessibility, accuracy, and overall user experience for mariners and other stakeholders. : In January 2025, NOAA will discontinue the production of all paper charts. In alignment with this change, the Coast Guard will transition from using NOAA Paper Chart Numbers and Editions/Dates for disseminating Marine Safety Information (MSI) to using Official Waterway Names. : The LNM and Light List data will now be available in a geospatial format, which will allow you to visualize information interactively on a map/chart. You can use your mouse wheel or the +/- buttons in the upper left portion of the screen to zoom in or out and navigate to your desired area on the map/chart. Once the area is displayed, you can generate a PDF of the LNM or Light List for that specific area, which you can then save and/or print. Alternatively, you can use a fillable form on our website to select your waterway by name from the Light List and generate the LNM or Light List. LNM data will be refreshed every fifteen minutes.  Light List data will be refreshed every 24 hours.  This will give you a much more up-to-date operating picture, designed to enhance your efficiency and improve safety in your area of transit or planned routes. Weekly LNMs, Weekly Light List Correction Files, Daily Discrepancy Files, and the Summary of Light List Changes will no longer be published to focus on providing the most up-to-date and accessible format. In the near future, we will also publish an Application Programming Interface (API) for interested parties to access the data externally. The modernization of MSI delivery is designed to improve the U.S. Coast Guard’s aid-to-navigation data management and dissemination capabilities. By providing frequent updates, geospatial visualization, and digital access, we hope to achieve our goals of: By delivering the most current and precise information, mariners can make better-informed decisions, reducing the risk of accidents and ensuring safer navigation. The shift to geospatial visualization makes it easier for all users, from commercial mariners to recreational boaters, to stay informed. The integration of LNM and Light List data into a geospatial format to simplify the gathering of safety information and facilitate easy route planning.     The transition to the modernized LNM and Light List platform (the Navigation Center website) will be completed by Monday, September 30 . Starting on September 30 , 2024, you will be able to access the updated LNM and Light List through the NAVCEN website. A User Guide will be available on the NAVCEN website. Customers will still have the ability to download legacy versions of these products until October 21st. For any questions or assistance, please visit our  , select ‘LNMs or Light Lists’ from the Subject dropdown, and submit your inquiry. Thank you for your continued support as we work to improve the safety and efficiency of maritime navigation.    Questions for the Coast Guard?     For more Coast Guard news, visit our  online newsroom here.   How these changes will affect the posting of LNM on Cruisers Net is not clear, but we will attempt to continue the daily posting of LNMs as they are received.

It is     and  William Kamkwamba was born in Malawi, a country where magic ruled and modern science was a mystery. It was also a land withered by drought and hunger. But William had read about windmills, and he dreamed of building one that would bring to his small village a set of luxuries that only 2 percent of Malawians could enjoy: electricity and running water.  His neighbors called him misala – crazy – but William refused to let go of his dreams. With a small pile of once-forgotten science textbooks; some scrap metal, tractor parts, and bicycle halves; and an armory of curiosity and determination, he embarked on a daring plan to forge an unlikely contraption and small miracle that would change the lives around him.

The 9 Best Sailing Forums 2024 Whether you’re new to sailing or have some decent nautical miles under your belt, sailing forums are an essential part of boat life and an absolute lifesaver for so many in the sailing community. When we moved on to our sailboat four years ago we honestly didn’t have a clue. We couldn’t sail, and we had very little experience in boat maintenance, both of which are essential skills when you live on a boat! Along with some incredible advice from the people we met, we had the support of a much larger community of sailors, those people on sailing forums. When there was a query we didn’t know the answer to, the internet was our friend and we turned to the best forums for sailing to help us solve problems big and small. Now we’re a little more experienced we still use sailing forums all the time. Not quite daily anymore but certainly a lot! Especially while we’re redoing our catamaran and have so many DIY-related questions. In this article, we give you the low down on the best sailing forums out there so that you can find the answers you’re looking for. We’ve used every single one of these forums and each has its own loyal community and niche that can help you answer any questions you have about sailboats and sailing. They’re also awesome communities where you can connect with like-minded people, find crew or crewing opportunities, and even make long-lasting friends.

There is such a huge range of topics and questions answered that it’s hard to keep up, but you can almost guarantee that if you’re wondering something about your boat or sailing then it has been discussed at length in the Cruisers Forum. Even things like sailing with a baby are hot topics! As a member, you can ask pretty much anything you like, as long as it’s related to sailing and in the right category. We’d be very surprised if you didn’t get an answer! The Different Forum Categories The Cruisers Forum has numerous categories, but they are quite easy to sort through to find what you’re looking for. There is an introduction section for new members, cruising categories for each popular sailing ground, sailing news, and numerous boat DIY-related categories. You’ll even find conversations on the best songs about sailing ! You will also find regional topics so you can search for things going on in your sailing area and make connections. If you’re new to sailing then you’ll find a wealth of information on sailing itself. Questions like ‘when should you reef’, or ‘what’s the optimal heeling angle’ are commonly debated topics and you will learn an awful lot by just reading through other people’s experiences and how they handled situations. One of the sections we find we use most are the ones dedicated to boat maintenance, where you’ll find so much first-hand experience from people undertaking projects similar to your own. The knowledge here is unreal. If you’re restoring an old boat then this is the place for you. There are sections for all sorts of boats – from catamarans to power vessels, to small day sailors and you can often find out useful information about certain types of boats too. There was even a discussion on our very unique Kadey Krogen 38 that helped us immensely when we were trying to decide whether to buy her. The liveaboard ‘Life Aboard a Boat’ section is one of the forum’s most popular and dives into topics on everything from how to make money aboard to the best equipment for your galley. #2 Sailing Anarchy Forums Sailing Anarchy  is another sailing forum we use often. It has a slightly more modern format to that of Cruisers Forum which we like, and things are easy to find. It has a large readership and loyal, passionate members who have all kinds of expertise. You don’t need to sign up to access the forums, but like the others, you won’t be able to post or comment unless you do. This is another sailing forum with a really wide array of categories, and you’ll find almost any question answered here (or ready to be answered!) Different Sailing Forum Categories Just like Cruisers Forum, Sailing Anarchy is a general sailing forum that has a huge range of topics. There’s a general sailing section for all things actual sailing related, or a boat maintenance category, or categories related to certain types of sailing such as dinghy sailing or offshore sailing. There’s also a sailing news section and a photo section where you can post pictures of your boat! There’s a section for people looking for crew, or looking for boats, which is especially useful for anyone seeking crewing opportunities or who is short-handed sailing. One of the really popular sections on this sailing forum is actually the non-sailing discussion board where members discuss all kinds of totally unrelated topics. It seems strange that this would exist in a forum dedicated to sailing, but it’s a great place for people to make connections in the sailing world. #3 SailNet Community The SailNet Community  is yet another general sailing forum with a big following and some loyal and dedicated members. You’ll find almost any topic here, from sailing advice to provisioning recommendations, so it’s a one-stop shop for all things sailboat related. One of the things we actually don’t like so much about this forum is its homepage. Rather than listing all the categories, it lists the newest posts or posts recommended for you. While this is great for regular visitors, if you’re looking for something specific it can be confusing trying to navigate to the categories page. Just a little personal preference gripe! Forum Categories The first category you’ll see here is the new member’s discussion board which we love. Sometimes these forums can be a little intimidating but the members here are really welcoming which will encourage you to engage. The sailing gear discussion board is one of the most popular, with a huge amount of engagement in it, so it’s a great place to head if you’re seeking advice on new equipment or you’re fixing up your boat. There’s everything from the best lithium marine batteries to Helly Hansen vs Musto being discussed here. There are additional forum categories for things like racing, photos, lost vessels, chartering, and seamanship skills. There is also a section on here for finding crew so it’s worth putting the feelers out on several different forums if this is what you’re looking for. There is a section on here for sailing with kids which has a whole tonne of advice and discussions on. It’s also a great place to connect with other sailing families in different parts of the world, and potentially arrange meet-ups for the kids. #4 YBW Forum The YBW Forum (Yachting and Boat World) is yet another fantastic resource for any sailor, experienced or not. It’s mostly aimed at sailors in the UK, but we have found a wealth of knowledge on here for all sorts of questions, so don’t think it’s limited to people living in the UK. The forum has a huge number of members, with some boats seeing over a million messages from users. They have a range of specific boards that you don’t find on some other forums, like the River Thames forum, especially for boaters on the Thames waterways. The forum is laid out well, with clear categories and an easy-to-navigate home page. Members are friendly and welcoming, and aside from the few salty grumps you find everywhere, this is a great place for newbies to ask for advice. You’ll find quite a few alternative categories on this forum, as well as all the usual sailing and sailboat maintenance boards. There are several boards hosted by Practical Boat Owner and Yachting World which get a lot of interest, on topics like yacht racing and liveaboard life. There is also a book club board and a virtual pub for sailors keen for a bit of chat and banter from the comfort of their own armchair! A useful category on this forum is the sailboats for sale section, where you can browse listed sailboats or advertise your own for sale. Alongside this, you’ll find a section for stolen or missing boats and gear so you can help keep an eye on people’s prized possessions. #5 Sailboat Owners Sailboat Owners is another huge forum related to sailing with a wealth of knowledge and information hidden in its message boards. You will find a number of passionate sailboat owners readily giving away tips and advice on all kinds of subjects, so it’s a surefire place to get burning queries answered quickly and (usually) accurately and in detail. One thing that sets this forum apart from some of the others is the extensive list of different boat brands that are discussed. You can ask questions specifically related to your make of boat and it’s likely your question will get answered by an owner or previous owner that had a similar issue. This is super handy for DIY questions or specific sailing questions related to your own boat. There are also sailing gear discussion boards so it’s a great place to head if you’re looking for a new winter sailing jacket or the best tender for your yacht . #6 Sailing Forums Sailing Forums  covers mostly racing boats, with a range of sailboats as their own categories. There is also some boards on boat maintenance, again with the primary focus being race boats and smaller sailboats. They have a really great user layout, with a clean, uncluttered forum that’s easy to navigate. This is one of our favourites in terms of design, and there aren’t too many ads getting in the way of your searches! The user base is extensive and the members on this forum are passionate and knowledgeable. Boards tend to get a large number of replies from sailors who know their stuff, especially when it comes to dinghy sailing and race sailing. The forums biggest categories are on the popular Sunfish and Laser sailboats. These are much loved sailboats and very sought after, so the for sale section is pretty handy if this is the kind of boat you’re after. If you already own one then this forum is a fantastic resource. You’ll find tips on repair, restoration, the best sailing techniques and more. You’ll also find plentiful discussions on the Catalina 14 and the J/24 which each have their own sub headings in the forum. We don’t use this site very often as we’re not race sailors or small boat owners, but it does have some useful tips for general sailboat maintenance so we have used it from to time and found commenters to be friendly and experienced. #7 WoodenBoat Forum The WoodenBoat Forum  is a huge forum with a wealth of information tucked away inside it. This is one of the better forums out there for cruisers and powerboats, but there is a lot of boards on maintenance that applies to all boats. From the title, you would assume this forum is only for owners of wooden boats, but there’s a diverse range of information for the owners of all kinds of boats and it’s a great place to head for specific tips and advice. It also has some great tips for anyone building a boat from scratch. Personally, we find this forum a really great resource for our DIY jobs and we often find the comments are from really experienced people, sometimes even specialists that do the trade as their profession. It’s tips from people like these that are the most valuable. This forum contains all the categories you would expect from a general sailing forum, from repair, to building, to design, to people and places. The bilge is an aptly named category for basically any ‘old rubbish’. This is the general discussion board where you can come to share experience, discuss random interesting topics and make connections with other sailors. It’s your online pub, where you can go for a good old natter. Reddit Sailing is comparable to the different Facebook groups on sailing (which are also fantastic sources of knowledge that we’ll look at below). You can join a sub-Reddit for a huge range of different specific sailing categories and discussions from these will show up on your feed just like on Facebook. If you’re looking for specific information or advice you can simply type it into the Reddit search bar, or you can go ahead and ask the question yourself. Just be careful not to do any kind of self-promotion on Reddit. This isn’t that kind of platform, and you’re very likely to get some abuse for it! You can join a number of different categories that are related to sailing but are a little more specific, and these will show up in your feed when you use Reddit. Search for sailboat cruising or liveaboard for a huge community of liveaboard sailors who are willing to offer tonnes of great advice about life aboard. #9 Yachts and Yachting Yachts and Yachting is one of the best forums out there for information on actual sailing. It has a large race community and many of the boards focus on getting the best sailing performance from different kinds of boats. It’s got an intuitive layout even though the design is a little outdated, and things are easy to find. It also has a large member base of active sailors who answer questions quickly and with good advice. There isn’t so much information on boat maintenance, so try using one of the other forums for this. There is a HUGE range of categories here, from technique to sailing stories, to insurance questions. One of our favorite sections is the sailing holiday destinations board which has discussions on the best cruising grounds for vacations (and sailing in general). Discussions on things like Greece vs Croatia are super useful if you’re trying to plan your next sailing season. There are also sailing gear discussion boards with subjects as diverse as the best watches for sailing to the best sailing headlamp . ‍How To Know A Good Sailing Forum? It’s quite easy to determine almost straight away whether or not you’re going to find worth in a sailing forum or not. A great forum for sailing will have a large audience and membership, and frequent postings. You can check these things as soon as you enter the homepage as all the figures and dates are there to see. You can also see straight away whether a forum is arranged in a user-friendly format simply by searching for what you’re looking for. If there are no clear categories and no search bar, then you might be looking at spending hours trying to find information. Look for sailboat forums with free membership and ones that are well-moderated. If you’re scrolling and find an offensive comment, but don’t get a response when you report it, this should be a bit of a red flag. You can also get an idea of how friendly members are by looking at the new member’s page and checking through some of the comments. Normally you’ll find a very friendly and welcoming group of people. The Downsides To Sailing Forums Of course, there are a few things to be wary of when using online forums. Firstly, you’re likely to find a huge range of opinions. As we all know, sailing tends to generate a lot of differing opinions on the right way to do things, and oftentimes there simply isn’t a clear-cut answer. People in sailing forums can get pretty fired up over their own opinions, and it can be hard to work out who is right. Often no one is right or wrong, it’s simply a different point of view. We find it’s worth taking an answer that we believe is right or sounds right to us, and then backing it up with a little more Google research. Secondly, unfortunately, you can find some nastiness on these forums. On the whole, they are well regulated, and hateful posts tend to get taken down and the commenter banned, but some things do slip through the net. Try not to take everyone’s comments seriously. It’s very easy to type out a smart-mouthed comment or berate someone for a mistake that they swear they would never make from behind the safety of a screen. Report it, ignore it, and move on. These people are not worth your precious time. Conclusion: The Best Sailing Forums Here are some of the best sailing forums out there to help you on your way to living the sailing dream, whether that’s living on board or simply crewing once in a while. These forums are full of interesting and knowledgeable people who can’t wait to talk about all the things you’re desperate to learn, so make sure you spend some time checking them out, and maybe even add a comment or two yourself! We can also highly recommend building up a community on Instagram. We’ve met so many liveaboard sailors through this social media network and learned a lot from them. Kickstart yours with some top Instagram ocean captions !
