Sailing Vessel Ephyra	EcoLandMod mobile office Ephyra (the Greek goddess who protects sailors from storms) is a Seidelmann 37, being (since 2014) Carl's home and the office for EcoLandMod, Inc. - with plenty of OS X/Linux computing power (>8 Intel Core i9 processers, with high-speed Starlink internet access). And... she's fast&fun in sailing races :-) Or cruising the Bahamas...
Ephyra on fast mission	EcoLandMod mobile office on the move Summoned to an urgent modeling task, Ephyra flies across Little Bahama Bank at 7.5-8.5 kt (water speed, against >1 kt current) in a 20-25 kt breeze.
Ramsey (Crius Chrysomallos)	EcoLandMod coder Also very fast is the code created by battle-hardened Ramsey. The regional ELM hydo-ecological application (>41k grid cells) runs a standard 36-yr scenario in 148 minutes (Intel Core i9 laptop), or about 4 min/yr.
