eruptn 90 Posted August 29, 2018 Share Posted August 29, 2018 As seen on twitter this afternoon: First Atlantic crossing by an unmanned surface vehicle. The SB Met has made it across and we are very proud of her. She is the first ever unmanned surface vehicle to complete an Atlantic crossing. After 80 days at sea she has finally arrived at the finish line. Many thanks to all who made this possible. Marine Institute’s Centre for Applied Oean Technology, Christan Michelsen Research and the MicroTransat team. https://twitter.com/offshoresensing/status/1034012140657696768 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

MartinRF 52 Posted August 30, 2018 Share Posted August 30, 2018 80 days? How long would it take a log in the Gulf Stream? (The log would be swept north of the UK, I think) /Martin Quote Link to post Share on other sites
