GOOD ON YOU SCOTT BAKER!
WOW! I just discovered your website and am so delighted that someone has actually gone to the trouble to do what I have been thinking; bringing to the world of SALTS the communication wonders of the internet. CONGRATULATIONS! Your tracker system is right on. There are some useful links that you may wish to consider such as weather and sea conditions for the NE Pacific. Iīll e-mail details.

My son Jordan Campbell has just left Victoria on the Pacific Grace, thus fulfilling his prediction of some 8 years ago when he came home from KEATS CAMP to say that he was going to go on the first off-shore trip of the new Robertson II. (as the boat was known back then). Naturally I encouraged him as I have a salt water heritage. In fact it is too cool to realize that my son will be sailing under the Golden Gate bridge many years after his father sailed under the Golden Gate aboard the Roberston II on her voyage from Nova Scotia to Victoria.

Keep up the great work!
Alan Campbell

Re: GOOD ON YOU SCOTT BAKER!
What a wonderful heart warming message. I can only begin to describe how much all the recent activity this site is gaining has thrilled me - I truly hope this comunity continues to grow as it has - the prospects are so exciting...

I truly hope you will share some stories with us in the stories part of the forum about your experiences bringing the Robby over from NS - I heard some from David Roycroft when I worked with him at Pioneer Pacific Camp one summer but it would be great to hear more and I have forgotten much - care to share? (have any photos? or other memorabelia)

As for the links - a few others have sent me some - Iīll be adding to the chart room as time goes on - but please send any that you have!

again thank you for the kind note and welcome!
