Hello Geir, Great photo of you both. It sure was nice to contact you yesterday via amateur radio. I am hoping we can chat many more times while you are on your adventure & dream cruise. If you have a favorite frequency & time where you check in please send it to me in an e-mail so I can listen for you. All the best for now & safe sailing. Cheers, Stan-VE1RY
Hejsan!
För ca en timme sedan hade jag qso med dig og din xyl i båten under seglatsen utanför Fernando PY0F. Du berättat Ni är troligen på väg till fastlandet.
Kul med CW-qso med dig och hustrun i båten och jag på Öland utanför Kalmar. Jag kör en TS590S 100 watt och en stor horisontell loop. Jag förstår att Du envänder en kort vertikal och IC7100 på 100 watt.
Jag har tagit del av bilderna på QRZ.COM så jag har en hyfsad bild av er tillvaro i båten och på land. Jag är 80 år nu och ska inte på båttur. Men för några år sedan åkte jag och en kompis till Dominica nära Guadelop och Martnique på radioexpedition. Då var jag populärast i världen! Lycka till med resan. Sänd gärna att e-brev till sm7cbs@gmail.com.
Hälsninfar från Öland Island!

Thanks for your comment Stan/VE1RY
I try to be QRV as we go along. I normally use 14328 USB/CW and often in Norwegian. But please call if you hear me. It's difficult to be QRV at specific times - as it depends on WX/Sailing conditions and if/or we are in port.

Hallo Tore,
Ja vi er nå kommet til Brasils fastland. Se siste blogg innlegg. Her er det varmt og godt. Traff også et svensk ektepar som seglet hit i en Bavaria 31. Takk for hilsenen her og vi hørst kanskje en annen gang.

Hi Geir nice to chat today on 17m , Hope your trip is going well and you will soon be in French Guyana. I was thrilled to know that you had visited Deganwy N Wales. I fish up there on the estuary very often. I will listen for you again. All the best Kevin GW0ADC

Greetings,
This is the Mate from Arctic Princess. I am returning to my former home in Ireland in 2 weeks to wait for Grenada to open. Im not sure of your plans but if you are coming to Ireland I will be near the river Shannon, closest marina will be Kilrush, but if there is no quarantine restriction I can meet you almost anywhere, or organize a delivery of foodstuffs/parts if you are in need of anything. let me know if I can help.
