Log

  • Wind is annoying it comes and goes plus the yacht will not self steer in very light airs on the starboard tack.
  • I heard mention of my progress over the ABC. Obviously the argos is working well as I’ve not had radio contact for a while.
  • Using the old codan to transmit with I made contact with VV6 EV Albany & I received on my radio director finder.
