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.

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.

Cross the Convergence 2026 - Cocos to Sagar Island


Kapil Muni, incarnation of Lord Vishnu, founder of the Samkhya school of philosophy, disturbed from his meditation, in his wrath reduced the 60,000 sons of Sagar to ashes, as they dug the earth to retrieve the sacrificial horse that Lord Indra, the king of the Gods, stole off Sagar, thus creating the Sagara (ocean). Aeons later, Bhagiratha, a descendant of Sagara, asked Ganga to cleanse the ashes of the 60,000 princes, and her resultant torrential fall from heaven created the great river and where it met the ocean, the princes’ souls were washed and raised to heaven and Gangasagar (Sagar Island) was formed. So, let us join the pilgrimages to Kapi Muni’s Temple (see above) and race 2400nm from Cocos Island deep in the Sagara thence, in rather rapid Rapido 60s.
