2011-01-06 10:56:24 - Limit on No of DC's ??
Is there a limit on the no of DC's you can give?? Last night I gave 8 DC's but the latest one 6.5 hrs ahead was not performed. Result I went aground. Maybe I just forgot to sent it although I wrote it down. Would be great to have a list of all DC's given and also to be able to later edit the list if need be.

You can list all active DCs (and remove them) if you click on the "alarm clock" tab in the client. There's no limit on DC's.

Thk's yes I already used Brainaid's polars but not tried other features. I like your picture of Wijsmuller tug which reminds me of my time in tug & salvage company NEPTUN.

Sailed that tug and her sister Typhoon for 3 years in the early nineties mainly in N sea. Still my favourite vessel. Liked the job although not in this time of year.

Myself I used to work in the office but also a lot in the field with salvage work and marine operations. In the seventies we used to have out barge fleet stationed in Rotterdam. Today the remainders of Neptun is owned by a Norwegian Company and our previous sister company Red Tug fleet by Wijsmuller.

wijsmuller doesn't exist either anymore al has been takenover by Svitzer.
But it is nice to remember.
You're still working in the salvage business ?

You're sure I thought it was the other way around that it was Wijsmuller who had taken over Svitzers??
Well nowadays I only have minor consultancy works for the small local shipowners here in Stockholm and no major salvage jobs. We are 3 guys (all pensionists) who still do some work in our company Neptun Engineering AB but only at a small scale. Tomorrow I'll leave for my summer house for some rebuilding I do on my own. It will be difficult to race only via a phone modem.

Rommel by Balloon 2026 - Through the Sahara


Generalfeldmarschall Johannes Erwin Eugen Rommel may have been that chivalrous, gallant tank commander of legend, led astray by the Prussian military traditions of loyalty and chain of command, but one thing he wasn’t, was mad. So, let’s do it anyway – not stick to the coast and the battle for logistical superiority – but depart the oases of Siwa south west into the desert for Agadez and its uranium. And let’s go by balloon, it’s only 2500km (1250nm)!
