I live in a small town in southeast Alaska, where there's only a few small yachts; most boats in the harbors are either fishing boats or small boats for personal use. There's one yacht in the harbor next to the school I teach at.
I clicked on a random icon near Seattle, and it was the one yacht I see every day on my walk to school:

- monknomo 11y agoAnother southeasterner! I just watched a tug come around an island in the app, then saw it out my window irl. Very cool! I work with a lot of fishing vessels in the Gulf and Bering Sea; it is very cool to see a picture of the boat and get an idea of where they are hanging out.
- japhyr 11y agoWow, I just looked at your website and I'd love to get in touch. I studied physics in undergrad but went into teaching and now I'm spending more time programming. I'd love to chat about a landslide-prediction model I've been toying around with. I'll send you an email in a moment.
