Voyage Sponsors—No we haven’t sold our souls (John)

posted by John & Phyllis Web Site

Those of you who have visited www.morganscloud.com lately will notice a new ‘Voyage Sponsors’ side bar. This is where we display the logos of companies that have gone the extra mile to help us with our next planned voyage to the Arctic. Sometimes it was a discounted price on their products, sometimes exceptional service, or a combination of both. In one case (C-MAP) it is a company we will be working with on an ongoing basis to add information to their charts.

The thing we want to make clear is that there is still no way for a company to buy its way onto www.morganscloud.com. We are not selling advertising: these are companies that make good products that we would have used even without the extra help they gave us; displaying their logo is a way for us to say thank you.

The other reason for taking this step is that it informs you, our readers, of which companies we have received something from so that you can take that into account when you read our thoughts on their products. If a company does not appear on the ‘Voyage Sponsor’ side bar you can be assured that we paid full price for their products or services.
