loribear Posted September 29, 2014 Author Share Posted September 29, 2014 I must admit john i did get alittle worried , especially with the currents down here, but i do know alittle bit about engines, so thought it best to get back to yarmouth,the engine was redhot & there was oil on the river at the back, all the boaters were looking at us gone out, wondering why we'd come back lol.

loribear Posted September 30, 2014 Author Share Posted September 30, 2014 Hi jonzo , i think ive found out the problem jonzo, it"s a signal problem, ive just put 2 pics on & i had good signal this time yey. Lori 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted September 30, 2014 Share Posted September 30, 2014 Hi Lori.... yes just noticed you pics are now the Wright way around.... wonder if that signal strength is the problem with my Samsung Galaxy 5 phone. Was going to ask how you sorted it so will try posting pics only when I have full signal or wifi when I'm next at boat. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BroadScot Posted September 30, 2014 Share Posted September 30, 2014 Hi Lori, Looks like you now have a full time job, checking for best signal areas for sending pics. Sorry, this entails staying aboard 24/7.... 52 weeks a year Iain. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
