Sarah Brown on Nostr: Good morning from a pre-dawn Gosport Marina where we are about to commence ...
Good morning from a pre-dawn Gosport Marina where we are about to commence “Operation Oui Oui Baguette”: taking our boat, Scarlet, across the English Channel as the first part of our trip to Portugal. This is the second longest leg of the entire journey, and the first time I will have ever personally sailed out of the sight of land.
If you want to follow our progress, you can see us on Marine Traffic: [marinetraffic.com/en/ais/detai…](
https://www.marinetraffic.com/en/ais/details/ships/shipid:3886856 )
Note, that relies on AIS signals being relayed to the internet. Commercial AIS is powerful enough to be picked up by satellite, but ours isn’t, so there will likely be a dead-zone in the middle where we don’t seem to update.
It’s going to take about 14 hours to make the crossing. There is no wind, so we will be using our engine.
