I definitely appreciate the feedback. If you go to “Fun Stuff” at the top of the site under the logo, there is a sub menu with a lot more info including the “search our site” page. That page has all the different ways to find posts on our site including archives, tags, search bars, etc. The home page also has a link to the very first post to start at the beginning. Of course if you are on a mobile screen, you’ll have to click the menu graphic toward the top which looks like three horizontal bars in order to see the menu. This is pretty standard for a lot of mobile sites.

You can always click on the ‘title’ of any post to open it in a dedicated post view. That goes for most blog sites as well. If you expand on the ‘read more’ link for any post, it will open the post in this dedicated post view, and at the bottom of the post you will be able to navigate to ‘newer’ and ‘older’ posts with arrows to the left and right. These arrows have always been available :)

I understand the concern with wanting to see everything instead of ‘read more’ links, but I am also trying to be conscious of the readers who are bandwidth-limited like myself ;) That way they don’t have to load a whole page of 100 photos if they aren’t ready to.

If you have any other questions I’m happy to help! Best wishes on your cruising plans and I hope you’ll be able to get out here sooner rather than later!

We use regular web based email. We have an SSB with a pactor modem but don’t want to pay for an emails service to send and receive email through the SSB when we’re rarely off shore long enough to need it. If we cross an ocean we would have a satellite phone and consider the email services for the SSB. Hope that helps!
