Had a SPOT aboard and the owner was sending it every morning at 0800. Missed one morning, and a friend in NASHVILLE Tenn got worried and called a friend of HIS, who was a Mexican Harbor master on the Northern Yucatan coast.

End result? There were over 100 Pangas looking for us. One came past the stern and read the boat name and left. We wondered why. Several days later we found out.

Mixed blessing for sure
