Subject: TWL: remote paging alarms
From: Doug Barnard (dbarnard@XXX.XXX)

I managed to get a copy of "Sailing the Farm" by Ken Neumeyer, and he has
some interesting ideas. He also has some pretty wacky ones, like never
cooking your food and eating sprouts by the metric ton, but that's not what
I meant to mention here.
He has remote paging alarms set for intrusion, bilge flooding, fire, gas
vapor and anchor dragging. This would be quite the nice away to be able to
leave the boat anchored, and go out to play with a clear conscience.
Anything goes wrong, and the boat calls for help! The book was written in
'81, so that the tech is there- I just can't find it. He mentions a store in
Jensen Beach, FL (Voyager's Industries) that seems to have gone out of
business.
Any ideas or help would be appreciated!
