I enjoyed reading your experience with power outages. It’s fascinating how living on a farm and now on a catamaran has shaped your resilience. I can relate to the importance of being prepared; having generators on hand must have made a huge difference during those blackouts.

Your setup with Starlink and VHF radios sounds solid. It’s smart to have backup communication, especially when out at sea. Those connections can be a lifeline in tough times. 🌊
Thanks for sharing the video link too; I’ll definitely check that out. It’s always good to stay informed and prepared, no matter where we are. Here’s to weathering the storms, both literal and metaphorical!
