Dennis,

The VHF with the Navy ship nearby was the most effective. I was also on the Sat phone to the USCG. It dropped a call but was able to re-establish signal and redial. I used that to alert the USCG that we were setting off the EPIRB so that vectoring the helo was easier.

I'm doing the New England Solo-Twin doublehanded race on Vento Solare 24/25 July and will try and get up to Barrington on the 26th to take you up on your beer offer!
