Save arrival in Punta del Este. I see the journey is close to Uruguay, the wind on Monday is turning to North, and no or little wind on Tuesday.

Anyway...) by the quantity. I noticed however, that once back in Angra dos Reis... those little shrimp do not servive very well (are not present in the waters around Angra??). I usualy clean my hulls every 10 days, and that is why i noticed that the first clean after having returned from Buzios was still disgusting, but the second time... easy going... Anyway, good luck with yr saill souith. Take care and fair winds Pieter SV Onda Boa Hey Jesper, The 4 months i have spend with my boat in Buzios (and Cabo Frio) i also was amazed (and disgusted at the same time.. .. i mean what are those suckers and what purpose do they serve??

Jag tror att hela din resa från idé till genomförande kan vara mycket läsvärd liksom förstås sedan dina praktiska erfarenheter när allt testas i verkligheten. Det är ovärderligt att få höra/läsa om allt du råkar ut för vad gäller konstruktion, utrustning och assistans från varv, leverantörer etc. Kan i alla fall lova att jag skulle köpa en sådan bok omedelbums. Det lät verkligen otäckt med draggningen och när du höll på att landa i land. Gott att du fixade det. Tro mig - jag skulle verkligen ha älskat att få segla med dig men tyvärr tillåter varken tid eller budget det. Till er andra som funderar - Hoppa ombord! Jesper är en förbaskat kunnig och trevlig kille att segla med! Lev väl Peter Hej!

All the corrosive metal has dissolved in the salt water, creating the brownish goo that you see. Today I have replaced it with the shower drain pump from the forward shower, which was the same type. But I took it apart and improved the sealing before mounting it, as you said. Hehe the pump is totally destroyed inside.

Its not really a big issue, I have spare parts, just an unnecessary one on top of everything else. And I still need to spend maybe 10 days improving the firmware from the current prototype stage, for it to become anywhere close to a good system. And I never seem to get the time for that!

I assume they comprise fairly standard components, and that you can compensate for any differences in the "standard" LEDs conversion efficiencies in your control software, thus producing the replacements could be arranged by any remote enthusiast.
