If you wish contact while we're off the grid (this happens with some regularity) request our Sailmail (HF radio) address. Incoming email is warmly solicited, attachments accepted (except on Sailmail). Expect a reply unless otherwise requested. If none forthcoming I have probably messed up so play it again - with feeling.
