Hi Roman,

    Well actualy, the boat is still in the making ... I'm building it just
because I like the idea of a totally closed and autonomous system, I don't
have the money to travel and the "hi-tech message in a bottle" idea is
something I've been thinking of for some time. The boat should start
somewhere off the Canadian east cost and head for France, Spain or Portugal
and then come back. It'll be saving daily position logs to EEPROM so I can
plot it's course but still, I'd like to have a real-time position feedback
if possible ... And no, I don't do this often, this is the first time. :-)

Regards,

Tobie Horswill
