At this moment, Ye Yuan set up a parasol on the deck. He was lying on the rocking chair under the umbrella and enjoying the sea breeze comfortably.

This time he had already set the route for this voyage before setting sail.

That is to go through the Japan Sea, the Sea of ​​Okhotsk, the Bering Sea, then cross the Bering Strait and then enter the Arctic Circle along the high seas outside Mao Xiong.

At this moment, the Yushui is bypassing the Nanbang Kingdom and entering the Japanese Sea.

Needless to say, there are really no decent fish schools in this section of the sea.

Ye Yuan and the others drove here for a day, but they did not encounter a large school of fish.

Except for a small group of yellow lines mixed with snow, there were no decent fish schools.

However, Ye Yuan was not interested in such cheap sea goods, and the voyage was so far away, so he had no intention of taking action.

During this period, the crew set several nets on their own, but the harvest was very dismal.

Ye Yuan didn't care about these, and what he was paying attention to at the moment was the weather changes.

The reason for doing this is because this season is really not a good time to go to sea.

If Ye Yuan hadn't gone to sea for a long time, he wouldn't have chosen to go to sea this season.

This is because in the northern hemisphere's summer, the weather on the sea surface changes so much.

If a tropical cyclone is encountered, it will be a big trouble for fishing boats.

If it weren't for Ye Yuan's absolute confidence in his fishing boat and crew.

He wouldn't choose this time to come here.

Tropical cyclones refer to selected circulations that occur on the sea surface in tropical and subtropical areas.

It can be said to be the most destructive natural phenomenon on Blue Star.

If it is a small tropical cyclone, ordinary fishing boats will not care.

But if it is a severe tropical cyclone, it will be a very scary thing.

Severe tropical cyclones will not only form huge waves, but also be accompanied by heavy rains or tsunamis.

Tropical cyclones may be unfamiliar to some people. After all, they have different names when they occur in different places.

For example, tropical cyclones generated in the western Pacific are usually called typhoons.

Those in the eastern Pacific and Atlantic Ocean are called hurricanes.

Those in the Southern Hemisphere are usually called cyclones.

Although the names are different, the principles are the same.

They are all tropical cyclones that occur over the sea from July to September every year.

The Waguohai area is indeed quite special. Whether it is hurricanes or typhoons, they usually enter here.

Therefore, fishing boats entering the Japanese Sea from July to September must be very careful.

Just when Ye Yuan was thinking about this, Ding Yi's voice suddenly came from the intercom:

"Boss! The air pressure above us has dropped drastically."

This is also the benefit of having an advanced weather system on board.

It can observe the cloud image of the area where its fishing boat is located at any time.

This allows us to predict some weather changes.

"What are you afraid of with this special code?"

Ye Yuan thought this in his heart, but his steps did not stop.

He hurried to the cockpit.

Ding Yi pointed to a monitor and said:

"Boss, look at this cloud map!"

Ye Yuan glanced at the weather cloud map, thought for a while and then said:

"Change the course and go to Nagasaki, where we can escape this storm!"

Ye Yuan made a decision quickly.

He needs to find a suitable port to escape this typhoon.

Ding Yi followed Ye Yuan's instructions completely.

Even if Ye Yuan said to drive in the direction of the storm, he would not have any doubts.

So Ding Yi quickly changed his route and headed towards Nagasaki Port, which was closest to him.

Facts have proved that the decision to change the route was quite correct.

Not long after Ye Yuan and the others changed their route, the weather on the sea began to change significantly.

As the sea breeze gradually increased, the raindrops changed from sparse to dense.

From a light drizzle, the raindrops finally became the size of soybeans.

As the rain intensified, the waves gradually became higher.

The fishing boat was heaving violently in the waves.

The crew members are also experienced in such weather.

First, fix some tools on the deck, and then all the crew members enter the cabin.

Yu Hongbo and Wang Husheng came to the cockpit at this moment.

At this moment, several people were in a pretty good mood and were not frightened by the storm in front of them.

From time to time, the chatter and laughter of several people could be heard in the cockpit.

Although the wind and waves outside were very strong, it was not dangerous for the Mizui, which was converted from a warship.

"Boss, I'm going to get a cup of coffee. Do you want to drink it?"

Wang Husheng asked from the side.

"I'll just have a cup of tea!"

Ye Yuan replied casually.

"Where are you, Laoban?"

Wang Husheng looked at Yu Hongbo again.

“I’ll have coffee!”

Wang Husheng moved very quickly, and in a short time he brought out two cups of coffee and one cup of tea.

Because Ding Yi was concentrating on driving the fishing boat at the moment, in order not to distract him, he didn't ask him what he wanted to drink.

“Boss your tea”

Wang Husheng staggered back and handed the sealed water cup to Ye Yuan.

"Thanks!"

He took the teacup and said thank you.

While several people were enjoying delicious coffee and tea, suddenly the red indicator light of the gmdss system came on.

Everyone present became nervous.

There is no way, as soon as this system lights up, it means that it is in big trouble.

The full name of gmdss is global maritime distress and safety system, which is the abbreviation of global maritime distress and safety system.

On February 1, 1999, the gmdss system was fully launched in all shipping countries around the world.

It is different from the distress signal "sos" that was widely used before this.

gmdss is a new ship-to-shore communication system "Global Maritime Distress and Safety System".

It consists of two parts: satellite communication system and ground radio communication system.

The satellite system also includes two parts: the international maritime satellite subsystem and the extremely low orbit search and rescue satellite subsystem.

gmdss is an advanced system based on advanced satellite communication technology, digital technology and computer technology.

When a ship is in distress, it can not only send rescue information to a wider range more quickly and reliably.

It can also replace the previous manual alarm method with automatic or semi-automatic methods.

Ye Yuan's gmdss indicator light came on, indicating that a ship was in distress nearby, and a distress alarm was issued at the same time.

Distress alarm refers to the person in distress quickly and successfully providing the distress incident to the unit that may provide rescue.

The alarm includes three directions: ship-to-shore, ship-to-ship and shore-to-ship alarm, among which ship-to-shore alarm is the main one.

But there are also special times, like now.

Even if an alarm signal is received on the shore, it is difficult for the helicopter to quickly reach the location of the distressed ship due to weather conditions.

Therefore, ship-to-ship alarm is very important at this moment.

After all, we are all in the same sea area.

If there is a signal around, you will rush there as soon as possible. This is also an unwritten rule at sea.

Ding Yi operated on the dashboard and quickly made contact with the ship in distress.
