....pray, how is a Scribe supposed to work with such little information.....?!

Melv managed a short message to the effect he had a problem and was going to St John's in Newfoundland. A pin came out of the jib and it started to flap about
in the wind, he found a temporary pin and felt it was OK for the moment.
