Maritime Monday – Top Maritime Twitters – September 13, 2010

Our first Maritime Monday two weeks ago – #MaritimeMonday – Top 20 MaritimeTwitters featured the best 20 maritime experts twittering today. It was a big success! Included in the list were my favorties: @Amver, @CruiseVictims, @gentedimare @Itajaipraticos, @JensenMaritime, @JonesAct, @madmariner, @MarineSurveys, @petermello, @safeseas, and @USCGAuxVin. Last week we mentioned @SafetyAtSea and @SailorsSociety This week a couple of maritime Twitter All Stars I'd like to mention are: @fyddeye by Joe Follansbee, who is the founder and executive editor of the Fyddeye Guide to America's Maritime History. He is a a writer and webmaster in Seattle, Washington. he is also the author of Shipbuilders, Sea Captains, and Fisherman: The Story of the Schooner Wawona. Mr. Follansbee founded "Fyddeye" (derived from a word referring to a sail-making tool and the human eye) to create a place for maritime heritage advocates to post information about their efforts to save ships, lighthouses, and historical artifacts related to the life on the water. Check it out! @CaptainRande contains the tweets of Captain Rande Wilson who is a Master Mariner covering sailing, yachting, boating & maritime news. His Twitter page says "If it floats you are Tweeting in the right place." Captain Rande also has a really great website where you can stay abreast on the latest nautical news. If I had to hire some mariners to sail into balmy weather it would be Captain Rande and another one of my favorites @USCGAuxVin Do you have anyone to recommend? Please leave a comment or post your favorite maritime tweets on Twitter using the hash tag #MaritimeMonday.
