It looks like you had success...

www.findu.com/cgi-bin/find.cgi?call=N9TN-1&units=metric
www.findu.com/cgi-bin/raw.cgi?call=N9TN-1&time=1

and no errors showing, which is good...

Have you come up with an automated procedure to translate the
Orbcomm data and gate it or is there still a manual process there?
How often does the Orbcomm data get emailed to you? Does the
owner of each sailboat have to purchase the equipment or is
Orbcomm donating it for the race? I don't recall if this is on one
vessel or if it's going to be on every sailboat in the race.

Oops... I nearly replied direct to you instead of the list. I received
two copies of your message. It looks like you CCd a reply direct to
me as well as the list.
