[edit] Request input

Does anyone have ideas for further content? I was wondering about a subhead: "Special challenges" with a few listings featuring several-sentence descriptions of selected steering challenges: rivers, canals, unrep, ice leads, etc.

Meanwhile, it sure would be nice to find a pic of a woman at the helm to add more variety to our content and to help illustrate that, despite the article title, women are helmsmen too. The pic I really would like is a view over the shoulder of the helmsman showing ship traffic ahead! Fishdecoy (talk)

[edit] Calling all submariners and windjammers

Anyone care to contribute to the helmsman article from the submarine or sailboat perspective? Fishdecoy (talk)
