Default Sydney-to-Hobart yacht race...

Coming in loud and clear here in Auckland, New Zealand, on both primary
(6516 kHz) and secondary (4483 kHz) frequencies:

2004-12-26 09:55 6516 kHz USB - "Four Seasons" talking to a coastguard
station, sounded something like "Rolla" coastguard, didn't catch who this
was. Then, "Four Seasons" talking to "Sea Two". Then, boat "Bernina" (or
similar) relaying the position of "Lady Godiva" at 34 degrees 57 minutes
South, 151 degrees 12 minutes East. "Four Seasons" then said they'd change
to 4483 kHz and would shortly return to this frequency.

2004-12-26 10:03 4483 kHz USB - "Four Seasons" says he is standing by. Also
attempts to call "Lady Godiva" with no success. "Four Seasons" then says he
is returning to 6516, where again he announces his return.

"Four Seasons" is the comms relay boat for this year's Sydney-to-Hobart
yacht race.
