Hello Sir,
Who are you?
Did you not listen to the message on the phone on how to get hold of us? Apparently yes, you sent out this dirty email to me!
You can get air time from us or any place that sells Visada air time.
Good luck and good bye.

Enough of this. Spent most of the week trying to get through to Necol in Sint Maarten, to top up the credits on the Sat phone. If only I knew that the company that sells you the SIM card is the only F Company in the whole wide world that can top you the F up. How shit is that? If only I knew that I would not have bought it from a company in the third F world. I know better. I worked for a third world company for years. I've sent my billing information by email & tried contacting them by phone. I must be the only yachtsman whose Sat Phone service provider is on holiday. F! Well I'm going shopping first thing in the morning, check out with customs & immigration & if I have Comms at sea, great, thanks a lot. If not, F em. Looks as if I will enjoy about 5 perhaps more days of light southerly winds. It's what I need, as I'm a little fat to the west as it is, and with southerlies I won't have to come quite so close when reacing north. The next Low pressure system seems 5 to 6 days away & it could go anywhere. The last two went north. What are the odds? I did some work on my ARIES self steering and expect it to be more responsive, and easier to get working right. I might have opportunity for a quick email in the morning, but if not, when I get to Nova Scotia. God Bless.
