We're Back

Well we had set out and once off shore everything was working real good then the problem with auto pilot surfaced again, no GPS fix and other issues, knowing it would be impossible to hand steer we decided to return and sort out the issues once and for all. When we logged in the next evening with Herb, he said that, was a good thing as he would have told us to turn around away and head for Halifax, seemed the weather had made a big change which would have put us in gale conditions. So now we sit figure out the auto pilot, and sort out our future sailing plans.

    Bummer. Hope you guys can fix the goddamn pilot and set across the pond.
    I have a job already, hopefully next year I'll be able to cross the ocean too!
    Good Luck.

    Patric and Karin,

    Nice to finally meet you here in Shelburne after reading your pages for some time. In fact a good many of your ideas about Newfoundland have been, shall we say, borrowed temporarily by me for my visit there this summer.

    Best wishes,

    Armond on "Kerry Deare"
