From Andy Shanks: Don't know if you've seen this, but it may be a way to beat the winter blues. It's an online game to practice docking various boats in different conditions.

Tim Leighton has written about an excellent knot-tying
site, http://www.animatedknots.com/.
Take a look!!
Anthony Bavuso has written about an interesting new web site for sailors:
"I
have stumbled upon a really neat sailing site that I thought others in the club
might appreciate. It is called furled sails and it is located at http://www.furledsails.com.
They have a weekly podcast about sailing. If you don’t already
know a podcast is an audio recording in a format for your ipod or mp3 player,
and it is like a regular radio show. It’s pretty neat.
Here's a great sail trim guide
