2016 Trip 2016-03-07

Day one after the Regatta marked the beginning of cleanup actions. The water shuttle dinghies were already being decommissioned and someone else had returned the powerboats to the French side dealer. Mark and I returned the committee boat catamaran to Moorings/Sunsail at Oyster Pond and although the waves and wind were up a bit the channel entrance was a piece of cake and the only problem we had was waiting for the cab to leave, it was supposed to go “immediately” but that meant 30-40 minutes.

I did some shopping at Carrefour to provision the boat for the trip back to the BVI and successfully procrastinated beginning my repair job on the forward head again.

For dinner the four of us went into Marigot by dinghy for a fantastic meal inside the marina.

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.
