EDITORIAL: Too much information on the Internet - and much is WRONG

'’..but I thought I was doing the right thing.’'    .
There's TOO much information on the Internet., and much of it is wildly inaccurate. That's why we at Sail-World Cruising serve a valuable role for the cruising sailor, in bringing you responsible, up-to-date news from Australia and the world, gathered into one easy to read format.

..and that news is sometimes vital to your interests (this week a product recall), sometimes merely amusing. This week is no different. If you're interested in non-competitive sailing – just being out there in all that freedom and loving it – then you'll be interested in some of the tales of others doing the same.

Highlights this week include vital news on the health of our Great Barrier Reef, stories of sailors setting out to sail the North-West passage, some Filipinos in a traditional craft setting out for a circumnavigation and the hedonistic Treleavens with more gorgeous tales of their Caribbean experiences.

Then there is a great tip on how to balance your mast the easy way; a new Yacht Club for Hamilton Island ... and the story of the Labrador – they were never renowned for their high IQ.

Read on, enjoy, and.....

Smooth sailing!
