[status] Still motoring to get ahead of weather. (No real alternative, no wind!) Problems with SSB radio. Don't appear to be heard over longer distances. Apologies Patricia and David at gulf Harbour Radio, I hear you well, but my transmission doesn't appear to be heard by you or most people on the net. For info, I changed all the fuel and water tanks which were all copper bonded, fitted plastic tanks and a KISS. The configuration doesn't appear to work too well for Sirena but does weork well for others. I need to tweak it I guess.
[weather] Barometer 1020 (dropping slowly) Wind ESE 3-5kts Sea swell 1.5m calm. 5% cloud cover. Visibility excellent.
