Sailing across this vast Pacific Ocean, one can't help but wonder what life must have been like at sea for the early discovers and seafarers that didn't have access to all the modern electronic equipment that we have on our sailing vessels today. Even 20 years ago the equipment wasn't as sophisticated as it is today.
Nothing brings this fact home more than being able to call or email family and friends as far afield as in the USA, England, Ireland and South Africa just to say hi and put their minds at rest that all is well aboard.
