Embark on an exhilarating maritime journey with 'Sailing Six Thousand Miles in Eighty Days' by Edward Allcard. This captivating book chronicles the classic southern route trade-wind crossing, bringing to life a vivid narrative filled with adventure and the splendor of sailing.

This extraordinary voyage from New York to Casablanca offers readers deep insights into the essence of sailing, including the exhilaration of phosphorescent nights and the trials of terrible storms. Allcard eloquently articulates his profound appreciation for the sea's beauty and the freedom it provides from modern civilization. Perfect for sailing enthusiasts, adventurers, or anyone looking to escape the mundane, this paperback edition boasts 440 pages of gripping storytelling. Dive deep into Allcard’s reflections and escapades that illuminate the joys and challenges of a life at sea. An adventure like no other awaits you between the pages of this sea-faring classic. Delivery information: Ships from Smartfox NZ, ensuring fast and reliable service to your doorstep.Sailing six thousand miles in eighty days, Allcard makes the classic southern route trade-wind crossing westward, and not without incident-severe gales, thief-catching in Spain, avoiding a seductive blonde in Gibraltar, encountering sharks and shoals of flying fish, and narrowly escaping falling overboard to his death when knocked out by gear falling from aloft. Allcard's plan to dodge the worst of the hurricane season on his return voyage is not accommodated by the elements. Through gales and headwinds, and one terrible storm, he takes seventy-four days to reach the Azores from New York, arriving minus his mizzen mast, desperately exhausted, injured, and hungry. The next leg, to Casablanca, is enlivened by a female stowaway, before he makes a safe return to England. Whether describing the pleasures or the trials, the phosphorescent nights or the storms, the operation of his ship or his own introspections, Edward Allcard eloquently conveys his deep appreciation of the sea, and the escape from modern civilisation it offers him.

Perfect USB-C hub!
*If you are reading this and wondering if you should get it, or a competitor product that slightly lower in price... just get this one. You won't regret it.*
I already wrote a review, but I forgot to add photos. 1) I couldn't find a hub that had more than 2 USB-C ports; 2) This thing is tiny, doesn't demand attention, and built with aluminum. Not plastic, and doesn't feel cheap; 3) a life saver. I took velcro and mounted the little sucker under my MacBook mount. Now I could plug in my external drives, SD reader, and use the ports on my computer for other peripherals. One thing I was worried about was transfer speeds. I don't expect the fastest speeds ever, but I don't want to regret my purchase if it was going to give me more of a headache than a solution. To my surprise, the transfer speeds are fast, and feel faster than when they were plugged directly into my computer. One hard drive in particular always gave me trouble mounting. it would take forever. Since I purchased this drive it mounts in seconds.
I've used Satechi before, and their product have proven to me over and over to be reliable and of quality.

Works for me
This is plugged into a Macbook Air M2 and it supports a time machine drive, a 4TB solid state drive, a wired keyboard, and a free USB port for plugging various stuff into. In this use case, some other hubs don't work well with the Macbook; it keeps forgetting hub-linked drives are there, dropping them when asleep or not seeing them after a reboot. That has not been a problem with this hub. It's true I lose some of that Thunderbolt speed, but really, 5 GB/s is not that small a hole to put stuff through.

Leave the Laptop at Home - Content Backups
Style: Data Transfer (10Gbps)
I purchased this hub so I could leave the laptop at home and do backups of my GoPro Cameras and Drone footage to an SSD drive. I used FilePro Explorer app on my iPhone to set up tasks to do backups of my content from the SD cards to SSD drive. The one hiccup I encountered is FilePro Explorer (or this hub, not sure which) wouldn't recognize my GoPro cameras as a data source, so I had to remove the SD card from my GoPro Cameras, insert the card into another USB hub that had an SD card adapter (like the one here https://amzn.to/4dlkhMt ) and plug that into the Satechi Hub as another drive source, which it then recognized my SD card from the GoPro camera. So basically two small USB hubs and an App on my iPhone replaced what I would normally do with my laptop. Big weight savings when you're on a bike or motorcycle traveling.

Flaky and Fickle
Style: Data Transfer (10Gbps)
Worked great for a month. Went to plug in a spare ssd to back up files from tablet and it never has worked since. No data or power through any ports. The light turns on and stays solid but is just dead. Waste of my money for now it is outside of return and I am having troubles getting in touch with Satechi.

Love this thing
Style: Data Transfer (10Gbps), Style: Data Transfer (10Gbps)
I’m really impressed with my Satechi power passthrough 4 port USB C Hub.
It’s really slick, streamlined, and really good looking too.
It works well, doesn’t get hot or even warm to the touch.
