This weekend we managed to get the NKE system back into full operation. For unknown reasons the windinstruments died, which means that the autopilot cannot function in apparent wind mode or true wind mode, no polars, no cross over charts. The new Dutch service team of NKE had a spare unit on stock and they sent it over straight away. Today we mounted the unit and it worked straight away. Another succes was the installation of an origo cooker. Harry insisted on a proper cooker for the Round Britain, and not just the Jetboil or Mini Galley, which normally is good enough for me. The unit fits perfectly without any need for improvisatoin. Almost a dissappointment for a jazz musician, but very welcome in our case.
We will leave for Plymouth by the end of next weekend. Ready to go!
