When we started sailing in 1986

We didn’t have GPS we had DECCA and RDF

We didn’t have a CHART PLOTTER We had PAPER CHARTS

We didn’t have INSTRUMENTS We had A LEAD LINE and A WASP TRALING LOG

When we Sailed across the Atlantic in 2000

We didn’t have THE INTERNET We had A CHART PLOTTER

We didn’t have A CELL PHONE We had VHF and SSB RADIO

We didn’t have AIS we had BINOCLULARS and our EARS

Now we are Sailing the East coast of Australia 2020

We Have GPS. INSTRUMENTS. CHART PLOTTERS. THE INTERNET. AIS

HANDHELD TELEPHONES. IPADS. COMPUTERS. YOUTUBERS .

AND WE STILL GET LOST…Some things will never change.
