Episode 10 - Ship's Computer, how much tech does a sailing yacht need?

We updated the ship’s technology including;

  • Raspberry Pi running a Rails app as the Ship’s Computer
  • Outernet receiver for weather at sea
  • Find me Spot to report ships current location
  • vYacht to connect to the Ship’s instruments
  • And an EPIRB in case of emergency

We attempted to create our own Seatalk cable in order to save some money. It worked for a little while but was constantly causing instrument errors when the boat moved. Diana and I are trekkies aso it was fun working on a Star Trek themed Ship’s Computer. I’ll enjoy continuing to work on that while we’re sailing at warp 0.00000000000001.

We started to plan our route back. Our first jump was from Hopetown to Green Turtle Cay. Green Turtle Cay is very quaint, with colourful houses and friendly people. We visited the main settlement, New Plymouth, and wandered into the memorial sculpture garden and the museum.
