Please explain to the group why and how a BBQ grill would be of use for a
2:00 am entrance to Port Jeff. 1) To heat up the cover on the compass which was stuck on. 2) To start a small contained signal fire. 3) Underside of lid can be used to create large reflective signal surface ICW small flashlight Sadly, we deemed the entrance unworthy of such measures. The charts were enough. But the Radar was powered up and on standby and I had Spock on the com the whole time in case I needed a beam-up! RB |

But, in the end, it was easier to scuttle the boat and paddle in on the liferaft? -- Wally www.makearatherlonglinkthattakesyounowhere.com Things are always clearer in the cold, post-upload light. |
