Another day of heavy winds and uncomfortable sailing conditions. I decided that I’d get the postponed chores done, including continuing with my inventory and cleaning the bilges of salt water and remnants of diesel. I returned the car at 10:30am and worked below decks on the boat. Right now I’ve got all the floorboards up and am letting the bilges air-dry. I know that if I go anywhere in the dinghy it will be a wet ride in at least one direction, so for the moment I’m happy to remain aboard and do my chores.

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.
