The question for the computer controlled sailing ships would be more where they were during the nuclear phase - the ones that were in the South Pacific would most likely have no EMP damage at all - no nukes in their area at all - versus ones that might have been in the Med or anywhere near Europe or places in the US that got nuked
The Wind Song that I wrote up in the fanzine was in the Pacific during the nuclear phase in Polynesia - i.e. no where near any nukes at all - so her computers work. Would be a great basis for an adventure to need to get working computer equipment for one of her sisters - they would be a real asset for anyone who had control of one of them
