For anyone that has some time.

The public can help search for a missing South African catamaran crew through an online tool, their families said on Wednesday.The families fear for the yachtsmen's safety, as they last made contact via satellite phone on 18 January and missed their estimated date of arrival.The catamaran, Sunsail RC044-978 set out from Cape Town for a delivery trip to Phucket, Thailand, on 14 December. The delivery was for US-based world maritime leisure business Tui Marine."The current 'Lost Catamaran & Crew At Sea' enables people all over the world to search satellite images that are loaded by Tomnod for this specific campaign," the families said in a joint statement.The aim of the campaign is to search for the Leopard 44 catamaran that was being delivered to Phuket, Thailand, by Anthony Murray, Reg Robertson and Jaryd Payne.On the Tomnod website, people are asked to tag objects as either ship or boat, life raft or "other" in images.

You need to put some internet links in there for most of us to understand what you are talking about.

Wow Hg02,

I only managed 40 odd sq miles at 10 m resolution. Even at that scale if they were afloat they would only be 20mm long on the screen!
