Hey guys we have been in the mother of storms for the last 24 hours the Mini C and Garmin were taken out over night. Bummer.
The mini C has just powered up again after I stripped it down and inotec-ed it to death. Thank you Jim at INNOTEC your spray saved the day and we are back on line.
I was just trying to VHF a ship to pass on to coast guard that we lost the Mini C Beacon, but we are back thank god.
The team is working on solutions for the voice & data communications finger’s crossed, the storm damage is not permanent.
We have had 40 knots Plus for the last 24 hours Big Big BIG seas. The biggest so far, bonkers but fun. My position is N5039 W4339. May have missed an update on the plot?
Mike B just sent me weather more gales in bound. But hey at least this means of Communication is back up. I have more gales for the next three days, yippee!!
However I am out of the current for now and making slow progress east on the sea anchor. So relieved we didn’t loss the C Beacon. Keep tuned folks this is getting interesting.
The I-pod is off for now…
