It is OK. Capt Celaya had the solution ready prepared on Conoco Europe. The vessel was provided with an early 'black box' actually a green top hat shaped hard disk on the rear wheelhouse bulkhead fed from the Digiflop stand alone ARPA. One was to rip this thing off its mountings when abandoning ship and carry it to the lifeboat.
"But, Davith, there is always a gap between the boat and the ship."
I am just away to make sure the Orange box will fit the gap.
(Since when has the Chief done the bar accounts instead of Sparkie? Oh I forgot, another casualty of GMDSS)
