Keeping Updated on ARC
Posted at 1:24 PM, Wednesday, September 19, 2007
Hi All,
Several pals have asked if we will keep updating the blog when we cross the Atlantic - but sadly this is not possible as we will not have web connections so far fron land.
All our communications whilst underway will be via SSB radio, where we can via a pactor modem, send and receipt text only emails. Our email address for this service is MGWV4@sailmail.com.
What we will be doing is updating the organisers at Challenge Business with our daily noontime position whilst crossing - and at the same time we'll send them a short text update so they can publish that on their own site at www.worldcruising.com/arc/. If you wish to keep up to date with our progress and our position v the rest of the fleet - you can do so via that worldcruising site.
Once we've arrived and got internet again, we'll expand those updates, add any interesting pictures, and put it all back onto this blog.
In the meantime, hope we'll be able to update you on stoppovers (possibly on Madeira and maybe other locations) on our way to the start line.
Cheers
JOHN
