What the hell happened to this morning's live broadcast?

We were excited to do a wireless, full-HD live broadcast around the boat this morning. The tests we’d done with our FTBMates all worked perfectly, so isn’t it typical that when we eventually go public it all goes tits up? This is a quick apology for this morning’s live broadcast. The good news is we’ve identified the problem and will be attempting to do a similar live broadcast again, this time with audio!

The idea was to give you a live walk-through of us weighing anchor and the procedures and checks we go through. There’s quite a bit going on when leaving an anchorage and we feel this will make a useful guide to newbies, so we’re planning to do it again soon. Also, we’ll try and record earlier so we can catch Europe and America too.

Thank you for watching, please LIKE and SUBSCRIBE, it really helps us get noticed.
Peace and fair winds!
Liz and Jamie
