Greetings,

If this is your first visit to Yachtyakka, I have a few helpful tips about how to navigate.

Yachtyakka is a collection of yachting stories from around the world and around the corner. There is a lot of New Zealand content and stories that Kiwi yachties like to read.

The pictures are headlines for yachtyakka e-mails. The left hand side lists the most recent and most popular. Across the bottom of the page are categories that stories fall into, ie Click on YachtYakkaTV and you will see about 15 posts with yachting movies, this number will change as I collect more movies.

Spend some time looking around the different stories. A lot of the content is not in the index, surprises when you find them. The collection of profiles, stories and articles are a random snap shot of yachting at the time the newsletters were compiled. The issues published so far date back to about a year. If you get lost, just hit the Home button and start again.

If you have been here before you will notice a few upgrades. More profiles, more stories with unfinished endings and more on the spot posts, help me to build an online story of Kiwi yachting.

Enjoy the stories and links I have collected and send me all your stories and press releases, always!

Happy Sailing
