Missing items

I'm glad to say we've restored the missing items on MyCA as far as we are able to determine.

We still have a system problem that we've partially fixed, but may need to take down the system for a day to produce a permanent solution in the next few weeks.

New system

We've put overnight in a new version of the management system that runs MyCA. You shouldn't see too much difference yet, but there are several things under the hood which we'll announce shortly.

The Times reports today that about 20 yachtsmen have been trapped in Cherbourg marina for a week by French fishermen protesting over rising diesel prices. The protesters have suspended a cable across the entrance and bombarded any vessels that attempted to leave. On at least one occasion they fired flares at boats trying to escape.

Apologies

MyCA was off-line between 14:30 on Sunday 2 Mar and shortly before 9am on Monday 3 Mar due to a system problem on our web server. We hope this will not be repeated.

[Tuesday 4th] Sorry, it was. We were out from just after 12 til 17:50 despite the problems being reported to our web service before 13:00. We are actively looking at alternative suppliers.
