Google Earth KLM file of Joshua Slocum's Voyage


Tonight I'm doing some research on KLM files (to prepare a file of my 2004 voyage, displaying the voyage track on Google Earth or Google Maps).

I happened to come across a very cool Google Earth KLZ file (a zipped version of the KLM) put together by Jonathan M. Ahlbrand of Joshua Slocum's late 1800s voyage around the world.
