I see Freya now employes a boat-to-person tether (I assume) after being hit 
by an offshore wave on day 65. Cool if you are a tether advocate. :-)

G'Day Doug,

A tether makes sense given that the PFD, EPIRB and mobile are gone. She should
be able to replace the PFD at Townsville.

All the best, PeterO
