I'm just finishing a special project for Kevin, and Haida 1930 will be first in the queue!

The last voyage for Haida has been done! The last two months were a nightmare for the poor voyage calculator. The Gyro compass was often out 4-6 degrees and sometimes died, so the courses were a mixture of True, Gyro and Magnetic. Many thanks to Gordon whose careful work reduced the nightmare to the bad dream category! You can see a plot of the voyage here and, for more detail, download the KML file and view it in Google Earth. There were many mentions of people, and they can be seen here.
