Message from Benno and Marlene Klopfer aboard Diesel Duck:
Diesel Duck is at the only dock for pleasure boats at the Afasyn Dive
Club in Ushuaia, Argentina. We got here Tuesday evening from Puerto
Williams, Chile, about 30 miles SE from here. We are still in an
internet access limbo. The wifi in the club house and on the dock
has been down since our arrival (we didn't do it!) In Puerto William
was no internet. Okay, there was one internet access point in a
grocery store, but you were not permitted to use your own laptop.
You had to use their desk tops. The keyboard was different and the
lettering had worn off. We'd like to access our yahoo email account
and I like to answer the questions of the PUP members which have
accumulated since leaving Puerto Montt.
Could you please drop a note on the PUP list that I will answer the
emails as soon as I have the wifi problem solved. In this part of
the world, internet access is very sporadic.
We did take pictures and I will put them on a disc and will get them
to you one way or another. DD will stay here a week or two and move
on to the Strait de le Maire toward Mar del Plata. I will keep the
PUP list up to date.
Benno and Marlene
