    Brad,

    I thought a GPS EPIRB was required in sealed case for emergency. I was really just discussing time, clocks and cel nav. I agree, no-one should go without emergency epirb

    Feel free to run the race *without* an EPIRB (or similar).  That links to the GPS constellation of satellites.  Cant have that.  No uplink to the monitoring satellites either.

     

    Your safety be damned.

    Francis,

    If RKJ used an electric wall clock in 1968 then it can be used for the retro GGR. Everyone in the race should have two aboard that are rated. The mechanicals then become emergency back-up. Good find in his book ! Problem solved. I would use an aircraft dash electric. These are affordable on Ebay.
