Welcome to the YachtLog3 Blog.
Here is where you will find all the latest information about the new version of YachtLog3, formally YachtLog2.
I will be asking each of you to contribute to the building of this new software package for all boaters, whether a sailor or power boater. There will be threads to follow where I will be asking about what software you already use, then what you like and dislike about it? I am going to build the application in modules, this is so if you are a Power Boater and don't need the sailing modules why should you have to pay for them... nnnoootttt! Being Modular means that once you have purchased the base package you only need to buy the modules you want based upon the type of boating you do. I am tired of paying for software I don't use, so why should you?
Modules which are pre-packaged with the Base Module or Tool Bar could be...
- Vessel Locker
- Contacts Locker
- Accessories Locker
- Ships Log
- Tickler
- VHF/HF (HAM / Single Side-Band) Frequency Assignments (US & Intl)
Some of the modules you will be able to choose from could be...
- Captains Log
- Navigation Module
- Trip Planner
- Way-Point Locker
- Charting
- Crew Log & Details
- General Accounting
- Sail Locker
- Engine Locker
- Inventory Control
- Tides & Currents
- Fuel Log
- Storage Lockers
In the mean time I ask all of you boaters to return here as often as possible to take the Survey/Poll where I will ask specific questions. Please take part in the threads concerning the Interface, Look & Feel, and Do's & Don'ts. With your feedback and participation you can be a part of this new software package designed by boaters for boaters and be known as a "Best of Breed".
When I get to the Bets stage I will be looking for boaters who will actively test YachtLog3 and give feedback. Those of you who login and actively take part in the Beta testing will receive a full package including ALL the modules when YachtLog3 goes retail.
Thanks
Phillip
