10-4, good buddy.

Which is something I’m not allowed to say. Not at all. Ever. Along
with ‘over & out’ & ‘wilco’, apparently. Ray says so. In the interests
of obtaining the full marine experience I am now the proud owner of a
GMDSS Short Range Certificate (SRC), which means I can use a short
range VHF radio to talk to coastguards if I want. If they’re lacking
in Nottinghamshire I can talk to lock keepers and ask them to prepare
an upcoming lock for me, and I get to say ‘mayday’ if required.

I’ll probably spend most of my time trolling on channel 16.

Breaker break.
