She'll break it, but it will be closer than it is now. no more than three days is my guess

I think it all depends on the generator. Remember she's got a crappy air cooled one that keeps conking out and the other one that is drinking far too much oil. She is very dependent on outside info for weather routing, if her electrics go down I think she'll be in real trouble. Fingers crossed! |

Lets not tempt fate, satalite has been down all day so the postion data is not getting through, lets hope that is as bad as her luck gets! On another note, Mike Golding is doing rather well too! |

Yes, it's all very exciting. I used to be able to check on them a couple of times a day at work, but I've changed jobs now & I can only look in the evenings which is rather frustrating. |
