Operation First Contact

If you would like to make instant e-mail contact with GOOD GRIEF anytime and anywhere you need to do the following!

Sign up for STRATOS Service by going to the following WEB site, just click on the link below.

 https://secure.stratos.ca/regforms/stratosmail/new.CFM

Our Inmarsat address is: 436776110

436776110@StratosMobil.net

-or-

Call COMSAT CUSTOMER CARE at 1-800-685-7898 or Fax them at 301-214-7282 and tell them you wish to subscribe to their service in order to send Email to a Yacht with the COMSAT Email address:  436776110@C-Link.net and they will fix it up for you.   

There is no charge for opening the account and there is no monthly billing. You are only billed when you Email us via COMSAT or STRATOS. The cost is approximately US$0.01 per character including all spaces and carriage returns.  IMPORTANT NOTE: If you type  “noheader” in the subject line of your Email composition it will eliminate the billing for those 200 to 300 spaces and characters, which are non-essential. Every little bit helps, right? 

 E-mail using this system comes to us direct via the satellite and immediately lights up our “MAIL” light.. rest assured we watch it closely!! Pretty SLICK! 

We do have other Email addresses, but we are only able to access them when we are in port with a phone line aboard the boat or when we can find a host line ashore to download our mail…. Tough life! 

Since it takes time to set up the account, why not do it now… and then it’ll be up and running when you feel the urge to merge with us! We are always excited to   hear from you via any of our Email addresses, or even if you use the Snail Mail! 

Do it now........
