In the cruising sailor’s world, “Coconut Telegraph” is the nickname for the network that keeps cruisers up to date on the latest news in and around the Islands.

Contacting Capt. Mark on board StrayCat is not quite as easy as picking up the phone and ringing up your friend across town.

However, huge advances in technology make it possible for StrayCat to stay in contact from any corner of the ocean, 24 hours a day.

StrayCat is equipped with a Single Sideband High Frequency Radio and a Pactor III modem which, along with a service called SailMail allows Capt. Mark to send email from anywhere in the world, even from the middle of an ocean.  For this reason, email is, by far, the best way to reliably contact Capt. Mark.

The information you enter in the form to the right will be delivered directly to StrayCat via email, and Mark will get back to you ASAP.  If you want to send email directly, you may send to the email address shown above ( the email address is not linked directly to your email client in order to guard against SPAM Email Robots that search the Internet looking for email addresses to add to their databases )

Please fill out the form completely
