Yantic (1881): links, questions, comments, coordination, ...

[Michael]

However, you are presently in 1881, so there would be a Canada

Oooops. I was replying to Shenandoah 1867, and that date stuck. So, the problem was with Nova Scotia, British Province.

It was seeing the two different references, and having replied to Shenandoah 1867 that did it.

If I could see the plot I could tell you where you have been.

[Michael]

I know where I was. I just forgot when I was.

[Michael]

Yesterday I didn't know when I was. Today I don't know where I am. Nine days, not even one Lat/Long nor one bearing.

[pommystuart]

Don't know what happened there.

[Michael]

It wasn't you. You did your job, the log keeper didn't. I've got lots of hours with just "Pilot conning" and no courses, speeds, bearings or positions.

It's right up there with "Anchored off the coast of Yucatan." And, of course, no bearings, no logged positions, just "Anchored off the coast of Yucatan."
