Although a great deal of discussion in these pages focuses on different aspects of sailboat racing, most sailors use their boats primarily for cruising and rarely race. They spend time at the helm navigating the extensive waterways that crisscross Second Life.  SL sailors have considerable interest in recreational cruising, and Elisha Paklena’s discussion of Pleasure Cruising is one of the most popular threads on the SLSailing Forum.

Today we are excited to launch a new column on SLSailing.com dedicated to Cruising that will feature regular contributions by Elisha. Watch this page for discussions of where to go, what to see, and all the other practical stuff you’ll need for your next adventure excursion in Second Life. Welcome aboard, Elisha!
