This page is a list of only the cruising or sailing books I wholeheartedly recommend to other voyagers or anyone thinking about voyaging. I included my own short description with each. To learn more about any book, click the picture to go to the Amazon page. The Complete Rigger's Apprentice,. This book was a gift and it's proven to have been a good one. Want to learn to splice line? Want to do some fancy macramé around your ship's wheel? Want to do anything rigging related? The Cost Conscious Cruiser.

Adventures with the Singing Frogs: December 2010
http://blog.svsingingfrog.com/2010_12_01_archive.html
Adventures with the Singing Frogs. Sunday, December 12, 2010. Getting ready for Nana and Kermit's arrival. We're all so excited that Nana (and her good friend, Kermit the Frog) are coming to join us aboard Singing Frog. Apparently, Kermit insisted on coming along after he heard the name of our boat. And he's been practicing singing in the shower for the past month or so, in preparation. Laundry to me, in the galley. The next flight is due to arrive at 6:10pm. Let's hope she makes that one. Poor N...When ...

http://blog.svsingingfrog.com/2011/06/big-day-on-our-transformersailboat.html
Adventures with the Singing Frogs. Thursday, June 30, 2011. Big Day on our Transformer/Sailboat. Water and it ripples, those are shoals . better on the other side which is the far bank in a curve; more current on the far, steep bank which usually means deeper water. This worked quite well with only one more grounding in 3 hours. Weve been following the ICW creed of go slow! June 30, 2011 at 9:14 PM. Yikes, that explosion sounds like a heart-stopper! Someone wasnt sure how to operate their stove or what?

Adventures with the Singing Frogs: Hunting in Florida for an Endangered Species
http://blog.svsingingfrog.com/2011/07/hunting-in-florida-for-endangered.html
Adventures with the Singing Frogs. Monday, July 4, 2011. Hunting in Florida for an Endangered Species. None of the dealers have anything that works for us, so the next step is to start calling the 30 or so matching craigslist ads for private sales. And we're considering doing the trip by tenting it (with a few motel stops I'm sure) in a mini-van or something cheaper/more available. But that's all going to have to wait until after the 4th of July celebrations! July 4, 2011 at 11:29 AM. Fish in the head?

We have rented a minivan for today and tomorrow and plan to see La Pagerie, the birth place of Empress Josephine, and play on the zip lines at Mangofil. Friday, February 18, 2011. Good-Bye St. Lucia. Getting to tour around the sulphur springs and hanging out close to volcanic activity. Swimming in volcanic mud. Having a ...

Troubadour: What the heck is "Whiskey Toast"?
http://sailingtroubadour.blogspot.com/2011/09/what-heck-is-whiskey-toast.html
Sunday, September 4, 2011. What the heck is "Whiskey Toast"? Is a standard on Troubadour’s play list. I will sometimes request it when Chris brings out the guitar. I like to sing along at the chorus. But, lately that first line has really been bugging me. I kept wondering, what. 8220;Whiskey Toast”? The lyrics, written by Ian Tyson, and the song, popularized by Jerry Jeff Walker, begin ."Well it's two eggs up on whiskey toast. In fact you might wonder what was going on. More on that order later. 8220;The...

Troubadour: Sewing on Board
http://sailingtroubadour.blogspot.com/p/sewing-on-board.html
When we set out cruising we chose to do as much of our canvas and sail creations and repairs on our own. We bought a Sailrite LSZ-1. Sewing machine and I have made many creations in the past three years and will work on many more. Linda's Sewing Projects and More. Also check out the "DIY" tab on this blog for more sewing articles and resources. Here is a link for articles I've written on these topics:.
