Post subject: | Google Earth tracks |
This is a test of linking a Google Earth track .kmz file. Below is the URL of a track I did on the weekend. If someone could get the file from the public Dropbox folder below and save it in their Google earth and see if it works - https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/135 ... 202014.kmz I have talked to Matt and he suggested we try this way. If anyone else knows a better way, we are all ears. I'm hoping to share some of the adventure. By the way, this particular track is a real challenge due to fallen logs. I bent both mirage drives (hope I can straighten) and broke the sheer pin on the outboard. Had to tow my friends in paddle kayaks back to Kingston. Lovely spot and really enjoyed the adventure. |

Worked here on the iPad, Brian. Reminds me of the Everglades Challenge. It brought up my navionics page. Could not open the photos though. Cheers. |

I had no idea Tony, there were so many creeks for your Island. Your legs must have been sore after doing over 6,000 kms. |

Worthy of a "gator tooth", eh? |

The most prolific road sign I saw was "Floodway", and I would dearly love to see what happens when it >really< rains out there. I am told that the heaviest rainfall was 67 inches in one hour, followed by another 39 in the following hour !!!!!). In the large gold-mning town of Broken Hill whole streets are shaped as hollow floodways. The most thought provoking permanent sign I spotted was in the area of Nyngan, which seems to get flooded every year "Helicopter flood evacuation assembly point". Gulp. |

Brian, You now have a dishwasher in the new house and a spot for the Hobie. Why haven't you moved in? I have learned to like the US Hobie site. We get a much broader perspective and still have this forum for our Aus stuff. Cheers, Brian (with the faster red TI) |
