We spent the last weeks working on an overhaul of the TripSailor site. Before we officially relaunch the site we'd like to get your feedback. For those of you interested in the new site, you can have a look at it at http://beta.tripsailor.com . If you like, you can start using it right away, 'cause the preview site already uses the current database. We would love to get your feedback, suggestions and bug reports.
