I am a moderator on the lemmy.world sailing community through my Beehaw acct. Will this affect that?

I do like windy a lot. I took a basic university meteorology course last year for fun and found they used it for the course work quite a bit too!

This looks pretty compreshensive. Have you used Navionics before? If so, how do you think it compares?

We do plan on sailing Europe so I’ll keep these in mind! Thanks!

 

We use navionics for navigation and the windy.com app for wind and weather. Interested to see if there are any other good ones out there that we should be looking into. I've seen some people using the predictwind app for route planning but it's kind of expensive.

I agree. It does look beautiful though when it is maintained!

Thank you. She was indeed!

I messaged you. I think it might be worth looking into other locations if you can manage it. I really hope you can achieve your dream job! Herpetologists are cool people.

Can I ask…what is your profession? You seem to have an extensive knowledge on exotic animals, which is awesome! These emerald tree skinks are adorable! I am also incredible jealous that you live near wild capybaras. I have only seen them in a zoo once but had a children’s book that featured a capybara when I was a kid and have loved them ever since!

Omg i would LOVE a Gambian pouch rat! They are so cool. I was sad when Magawa passed away last year. I think we will stick with the dog for now since we are planning on spending the next couple of years on a sailboat but maybe one day I’ll be able to convince my husband to go for some fun pets like that. Honestly my dream would be to have a few capybaras but they come with their own challenges and I’m not sure I would ever be able to provide the perfect living conditions for them! Maybe I’ll get to have some pigs one day 😁

Thanks. Yeah the small lifespans is what ultimately got us to stop having rats. They are so smart and have great personalities it’s hard to say goodbye so soon!

My husband created this for sailing enthusiasts and it’d be awesome to see it get more active. You don’t have to be an experienced sailor. Just enthusiasm for the hobby/sport!
