    A yachtie/trekker newbie

    Hi Folks,

    I'm a liveaboard cruiser on the Yacht VALHALLA at the Subic Bay Yacht Club. I will be in the area for at least a year. I purchased a Ford Ranger 'Trekker' (hence my name on the board) and have recently done an 1800 Kilometer tour of North Luzon. Unfortunately, I didn't have a Nuvi with me ... would have helped negotiating some of the pitfalls of unmarked streets in some of the cities (I hope). I'm now waiting for a Nuvi 760 to arrive the end of July. Meanwhile, I will be making updates in the Subic Bay area as best I can. I've stumbled a bit over the past two days (can't do much outside in this lousy rainy weather) trying to upload some data and hopefully I've got things sorted out so I don't embarass myself further. Many thanks to the ones who have steered me in the right directions so far.

    Cheers and beers, Terry Sargent

      hi sir trekker,
      welcome to roadguide
      i notice that you have already upoad before you introduce yourself hahaha
      to steer you in the right direction, please dont upload same waypoints over and over coz it clutter the map.
      check if your contribution is already on the v1.06 demo map

      and if your nuvi arrives, lets see if it is equipt with the 1sec. track recording.

      feel free to post or else you wont know if your doing it right
      im sure somebody will help you along the way

      thanks for your time and hope to see more of your contribution
      good day to you sir
      Empty your mind, be formless. Shapeless, like water. If you put water into a cup, it becomes the cup. You put water into a bottle and it becomes the bottle. You put it in a teapot it becomes the teapot. Now, water can flow or it can crash. Be water my friend.
