Was a rough one this morning... the seas ended our race by breaking the mast, but not our spirits. Our deepest gratitude goes to our fine vessel, good blessings, and wonderful volunteer support that got us home safe

Old dog, new tricks: I just connected my 15-year-old West Marine AIS 1000 (one of the first non-commercial transponders) to Navionics on the phone/tablet, so I can see ship traffic even when I'm out of cell range. Courtesy of a simple (and inexpensive) device from yakbitz.com that converts the NMEA serial output to wifi. Would have been nice to have on the last !

Evidently, we support crew are not good snack delivery captains, but good at finding weak links of old boats. we tried to motor out to team Narwhal to give them a morale boost but the raw water intake broke and we had to give up pursuit. See u guys at the finish!

"...armed only with a 5-foot narwhal tusk..."

Only?

A man armed only with a 5-foot narwhal tusk has been commended as a hero after footage of him confronting the London Bridge attacker was shared online.
