December 2009 Vacation Trip 2010-12-06

Sunday, December 6, 2009

The day began at 7 AM after another rough night at anchor, this time because the swell worked its way around the bay and the wind shifted enough so that the boat was lying partially beam-to the wind and occasionally rolled enough to be uncomfortable in a big bed. Even after making coffee and working on the computer, the Link10 shows that I only used 30Amps over 24 hours, I’m getting much better at managing electrical energy and the strong wind has done a lot to replenish the energy used. I motored into Gustavia again, both to replenish the batteries and to check out of St. Barths prior to heading to St. Martin tomorrow morning. I passed a very large and cool looking trimaran called Pilar Rossi again and finally got some good pictures.

Original hosting provider breaks my old website

My old hosting company, who will remain unnamed although their name starts with “go” and the end rhymes with “baddy”, changed their software with little notice and the original SV-ZANSHIN.COM site stopped working overnight.

Every. Single. Page.

So I’ve transitioned to another provider. These original pages have been migrated, but all the formatting and other features are gone and the will still contain numerous display issues and formatting anomalies.

The manual effort of conversion is too much and not worth the effort involved. Over 1000 blog diary pages like this one are going to remain in this condition. The pictures are full-scale, but won’t expand when clicked. But you can can copy them to view them in their original splendour.
