Hot off the Navtex
Discussion
Just had an e-mail from the 2nd officer onboard a ship, with the following Navtex warning.
"U.S. Coastguard Portland, Maine.
Endangered N. Atlantic Right Whales are known to be present in the following locations:
37N 86W, etc. etc.
Note: Be advised that whales may not remain at reported locations."
They are pretty smart in the USCG
