9. Contacting Us

E-mail addresses are going be formatted a bit funny, because we do not want any automatic programs to capture this information. Yet any human should be able to figure them out. We know we are going out a limb sharing things here on a public site, but we want to make it easy for people to get in touch with us. Please be careful with the e-mail addresses and phone numbers. While at sea the satellite phone and sailmail.com address are the only ways to contact us.

  • MMSI (for DSC): 367109510
  • Ship’s Callsign: WDC9987
  • Christi’s HAM Callsign: KI6FSL
  • Eric’s HAM Callsign: KI6FSM
  • Satellite Phone: 881641474722 (It charges you, not us, when you call, so be careful)
  • Mobile Phone: 18589679721
  • E-mail 1 *: eric at L I V E F L U X do t  net
  • E-mail 2 *: Same as above but instead of eric use christi
  • E-mail 3: The ship’s callsign (above) @ sailmail.com (Text only! This is very low speed connection). This is usually the fastest way to get in touch with us, since this is an e-mail address we can check while underway, and on land.

* When you send to e-mail 1 or 2 it will ask you to reply back to a message to prove you are a human. When you reply back it will put you on the “white list” and we will get your e-mail.

You can post a comment on a blog story to send us a message, which is of course public to the world. Due to bandwidth limitations it is hard for us to respond to a blog comment with a blog comment, so look for a response in a story posting or e-mail from us. We do read all the comments and love to get them! See FAQ 34.

Important note: The blog stories are not in real time. This gives us time to write the stories at our liesure and organize the pictures. This means while you are reading about one location, we will very likely be somewhere else.
