The Boat Ramp App

In the current issue of Popular Mechanics (April/2012) – popularmechanics.com, I saw an advertisement for The Boat Ramp App. I thought to myself, they obviously aren’t familiar with Waymarking.com!

I am not a fisherman, but I know some people who are.

What is it?

 This blog post isn’t about which one is better. It’s about being aware of  all of the resources available to you to help you locate the places you want to go to.

While waymarking.com doesn’t list every place on earth, it does list quite a bit. If you find a place such as a favorite fishing spot or a boat ramp which isn’t listed on Waymarking.com, you can add it if there is already an existing category. If there isn’t a category for something which you believe there should be one for, then you can create one. Sometimes there’s an app for that, and sometimes there isn’t. If you know of a particularly useful app or website which might help other families find great travel destinations, please feel free to share it in the comments section here.
