HELP! YachtWorld connection lost!!

I'm alone in a foreign country and my YW connection is down.
I'm having trouble breathing, but I'm kept conscious with repeated attempts at site connection....so far no luck, is this a remote problem or is the site down?...I need to know....please throw me a freakin bone...

Sorry about that. Seriously bad timing, they just gave away 65 boats. Craziest thing I ever saw. I can't wait to sail on my new, free Bene.

It works in the good old USA.

. Must be a local problem.

You saw that too. I got a Morris that should arrive in the mail in a day or two. All the freebies went pretty quickly as you would expect.

I think they just gave your boat away to a Canadian in BC

Check your country setting.

I almost grabbed that free Hinckley B-40, but decided that I could never afford the varnish... If you get in in the next few minutes, she could be yours...

Specialaid, thanks.
YW seems to work with Safari OK, but having trouble working with Opera.
Not sure why, currently in Aberdeen, Scotland,. Have not had this hitch before. But all OK, I'm connected, none-the-less!
