Posted by JeanneP Also, SSB radio on several occasions. Finally installed an on/off switch for the radio in order to completely isolate radio from power source so that stray electrical spikes from starter motor couldn't damage electronics. Many other pieces of gear, mostly from wear, tear, and old age.

Not much to prevent something like that. But we're a sailboat, so we just sailed.... slowly because there was very little wind (when earlier in the passage there was frequently too much) - a narrative of that passage is found at Watermelon's web page: www.cruiser.co.za/hostmelon22.asp - Kota Kinabalu to Singapore.
