There is not that much activity in the "Sailing Ships" gallery, and not that much in the "Tall Ships" category in the "Forum" section either, but every now and then there's something interesting going. (Just a suggestion, the site is mainly used by ex-sailors (spent some years at sea myself), and may not interest you at all.)
"Walmar Navigation School" I cannot find any reference to, there's "Kalmar University," as the nearest... "Walmar" might of course be the name of someone running a small school, someone long forgotten now? Regards, Jahn.

No, I'm still on the forum. I did make myself invisible, though.

Now I've got another book which we are the only ones with: The Wreck of the Maid of Athens. It looks very good - and short - so there's a good chance I'll get to it soon.

We're the only two with Ships Under Sail by Gordon Grant -- I just added a cover picture for it. What a great illustrator he was.

Thank you for your kind words. I have added your site to the "Glossaries" page in my Links section.
I'm trying to build my own glossary. It's not strictly nautical, though, which I hope will make it more unique.
Cheers,
Susan

I noticed we are the only two who have M. Southwick's The Night... Have you read her most recent book?
