Three Men in a Boat – A Globalstar Data Services Adventure Journal
On May 14, 2001, Jim Curlin, owner and skipper, and his friends Bob Niblock and Mike Geissinger, set out from Norfolk, Virginia on the North Star, a Shannon 38′ cutter rigged vessel, heading for the Azores. Their adventure is chronicled in “3 Men and a Boat – A North Star Sailing Adventure – 2001“. All the stories and pictures in the journal were transmitted over a Globalstar GSP-1600 handheld phone, using Globalstar Data Services. Their journey was followed with immense interest by an amazingly wide audience.
