The blackberry

One of the most useful devices for us has been my blackberry.

The uses include,

1. E-mail.

2. Phone. Works everywhere.

3. Google maps. Locates us usually within 3 meters with satellite photo of where we are. Always works. 

4. Photos, which we e-mail to post on the blog.

5. Weather forecasts. We get decent hourly forecasts going 3 days into the future and they are decent.

6. Internet access. At the site of the battle of Actium, we read the wikipedia entry for the battle and info on triremes.

This is a photo of the diesel fuel separator. (Upside down). It's located in a place under the engine that is impossible to see. (You are looking for water or fuel impurities to bleed out, since they are heavier.) Just stick the blackberry down there with forced flash and take a picture. Another set of eyes.
We guard it with our lives.
