 I agree with Gary, but would add the following:

 Most of the "features" which are privacy issues can be tracked down and
 turned off (they are all turned on by default), but the biggest problem
 that I have with Windows 10 is not something that can be turned off. There
 is no way to stop the operating system from downloading and installing
 updates, which in effect means that the operating system will be whatever
 Microsoft wants it to be in the future, and there is nothing at all that
 you can do about it if you ever want to use the internet. One thing they
 could do, for example, is decide that they are no longer going to offer
 support, and oh by the way for those of you who don't want to buy yet
 another operating system, Windows 10 will stop working altogether on such
 and such a date.
 Yuk.

Re: Stus-List Friday Night Rescue

2016-06-13 Thread Patrick H. Wesley via CnC-List
Very interesting thread. I'm reasonably sure I would get my MOB back to the
boat (and we do practice, although not often enough) but am not at all sure
that I could get them back on board my 24, and believe the stats about
survival in colder waters. I have read that hoisting someone out in the
horse collar could collapse their lungs and kill them. On a larger boat
there is a triangular gear that you can lower on a halyard, slide the
person in and hoist aboard, with netting that allows water to drain away.
Or use a foresail. In fact I bought one but after a dockside dry test we
concluded that it would need a number of people to carry it out and as I
usually solo or have only two crew it isn't really an option. Maybe better
success in rescuing people from another boat, as is the subject here.

Lastly, if you do get someone back on board and they are cold you do indeed
get them to strip off and dry but I believe that in a severe case the only
way to heat them up is to strip off yourself and get in the sleeping bag
with them. I suppose that in the emergency modesty would fall by the
wayside!

A couple of years ago I bought a Dual GPS (www.dualav.com) for around $C150
and it pairs with my non-cellular iPad and Navionics. I use this as a

 most car type chargers only measure volts and shut off when reach the limit
 but you then need to put it on manual and charge another four hours, which
 isn't practical given distance house/boat. Also that real importance is
 amps and only way to measure that is using a battery acid hygrometer.


 Thanks in advance.
