Covid came and went… and this blog clearly was a Covid victim. Although one of the key things that made blogging difficult was there before Covid: the WordPress app did not handle offline authoring very well. On the boat we are often cut off from the Internet. And the times offline coincide with times where I would have time to write, while keeping a watch during long passages.

When we started to sail again in March 2022 I shifted writing to my Predictwind weather app. It includes GPS tracking for the boat, and an easy way to keep friends and family up to date on our progress. And best of all: it works with the IridiumGo satellite connection, so also when under way.

More than anything then this post is a test to see how the WordPress app has evolved in the last few years, and whether it is now possible to create posts offline. That would be a good reason to revive the Rainbow Safari blog!
