Maldives Island Group in High Res
Part of the new Google Earth data update made last night, are a few excellent high resolution satellite photos of the islands around the Maldives. The Maldives are located southwest of India and look like a great vacation location. Three planes in flight have already been discovered in the area, and a nice "little" sailboat next to a real island paradise (as seen in the screenshot) . There are many high res islands to look at, and you can see many other sailboats enjoying the area. Check out the islands 
and see the placemarks for the planes and sailboat for yourself.

Thank you Bill I was wondering which island that was, I didn't recognise it. Not surprising really, there is over 1000 of them!
