As a "circumnavigator of Angel Island next week", I carry a whole metric
****load of electronic gear. You name it, I have it, and how do I power it? Yes
indeed, I had about 6klbs of lead hanging underneath my boat looking for
something to do, so I decided to use it to encase a backpack nuclear reactor. I
don't know why more sailors haven't been doing this, the solution to our
problems (power vs. weight) being so obvious. I don't even talk to my crew any
longer, I just send them text messages from the helm or navigation station.
