The rest of Stomp's site

[stomp]

In this off-season, I've been working on sprucing up the parts of my site outside of the Channel 6-8 forum. So, when you happen to land on the home page @ www.longpoint.on.ca (or www.longpoint.ca if you prefer) you'll now see the updated page and contents. For the most part, these pages should be mobile-friendly when viewed on your phones.

Of note:

• I used WordPress to build the pages. I highly recommend WordPress for those wishing to get a site up and running with a minimum of programming know-how required.
• I'm hoping to add pages and info about the places I usually fish: Long Point, Port Bruce, The Detroit River, The Kawarthas, Lake St. Clair
• I've started on pages about Long Point, resurrecting content from early in the site's history. I've included a Google map with some info about hazards at Long Point (Google has continued to advance and simplify their map-making and sharing). You can see this page @ http://www.longpoint.on.ca/long-point-bay-hazards-to-navigation/

I know Hastings gets a lot of attention, and I've had requests to build a map for that area, so I hope to do that soon. I would welcome any other suggestions for pages or information that I could add that would be useful for site users.

@stomp can you add this web app or a link. It's completely free and inter-active friendly. I've used it quite few times while doodling on my tablet to check out distances and depths while at home.

Thank you! That is very useful information, may even save a life or two.

OK @Three Bouys , you got me going on this. Navionics does now have a web API for their charts. Now, I'm getting a little old to write a bunch of code, but I'll see what I can come up with. You're right about their charts; they look awesome!

See http://webapiv2.navionics.com/ for info about the API.
