A self-sailing boat from British Columbia has encountered a mechanical failure in the Atlantic Ocean, and there is nothing her team can do about it. "She really wants to turn back onto course, but she's not able to," UBC Sailbot team member Youssef Basha said. (Jeremy Eaton/CBC)The team can only track the robotic boat online using a GPS that uploads her location every 20 minutes. The UBC Sailbot team spend a month in Newfoundland doing last minute testing to prepare for the journey.
