Sherry insisted on taking me to a really special produce market and grocery store on Monday...we said good bye to SEGUE...Margaret and Jim from TAHOMA came over for a cook out...we found that we were in Carver heaven...but most important IFIXED THE CHART PLOTTER... story goes like this. Orilla marina gave us a packet of info...in it was the name and number of a Raymarine electronics specialist...while I was napping on Saturday, he arrived. Fancy gagdets and all...worked up and down...cleaned card readers and tested...but it still seemed to freeze up...not really wanting to read the chart chip....and just a suddenly he left. I asked Floyd what he found...he admitted that they'd made no progress...the thing just kept freezing up when trying to read the chip....seemed logical to me to ask...Could it be that chip? well, the look I got said...you're a girl...what do you know about this stuff...but to humor me, he tried a different chip. Yep, that did the trick...after a little research we determined that the chart chip for New York, Erie, andTrent-Severn that we had successfully used last summer was the culprit...called the fancy electronics guy to let him know...he was much chargrinned...refered to me as the GODDESS of the water...and admitted that he would begin advising all his customers to take chart chips out of the chart plotter when storing boats. He did refuse to say that he would tell folks that a "girl taught me this"...guess he thought that was a little much...HA...doesn't matter, I'm getting lots of mileage outta this story!!!!
