Finally we have managed to resolve our E-Mail
through the satcom issues, the frustrations of Vista problem solving have driven
us to distraction!!..Why is is the end user is always the Microsoft debugger
(pun)!!..but with the patience and understanding of Ed from Mailasail our USB
Port to Serial interface has now recognised the driver and has been fully
tested; one more tick on the huge list of things to do for Rally Portugal.
Unfortunately after our 4 weeks ashore we have discovered a fine pattern of rust
particles all over the deck!!...unfortunately generated from the Ferro boat that
was undergoing major 'skin' removal and repair close to us. The good news
is the owner called me last night and promised to make good.......
Remainder of jobs on hold now as I write this at
Heathrow heading back to Saudi.......still least it will be warmer and
Renegade's budget definately needs topping up! Roll on spring, retirement
and our cruise preparation!
