It was a rainy today. Rain started already last night. Whenever I opened the hatch to get fresh air into my cabin from above me, it soon started to rain and I had to close it again.<\/p>\n
Thus, my morning first thing fitness training felt into the (rain) water but I used the time for my French lessons.<\/p>\n
During the day rain and no rain periods took turns. Luckily during a no-rain period I could get my laundry out, the wind dried it, and I got it in again.<\/p>\n
I wrote as the title “It’s a rainy day” but I could have called the day a “hoppla day” as well. The SE trade wind changed since a day to two ago slowly from E to SE direction. With about 5 – 6 Bft of wind outside of the bay, waves built up and a lot of swell started rolling into the Tahauku Bay. Some of the waves reach a height of meter. With the wind changing permanently or direction, the waves are often perpendicular to the wind direction. Then even MaRe rocks. Thus, a kind of a *hoppala day”.<\/p>\n
With my IT work I could make a check mark at 3 of 5 topics today. This feels good. Two more to go.<\/p>\n
About 2 weeks ago, I discovered that with some food container, weevils came on board again. They bite themselves through thin plastics packing and get carried on board already inside of food. (I could get rid of them very quickly.) That time, our friends of SY Anixi showed us their food containers. Weevil and other bugs safe. They use 5 l water container. I liked the idea and got such containers myself. Two are filled already with wheat grain, weevil’s favorites. The containers have a good size and I can store quite a few of them in the bilges. Also in the shelves on STB they fit pretty well. At the end I estimate I will fill 15 – 20 of these containers with food. No chance for weevils & Cie to bit through these containers’s thick walls.<\/p>\n
I also could install during the last days a newer version of the the PredictWind Offshore App. I’m disappointed because I can’t see any improvements.
\nFortunately I know s few tricks, thus I can download the data I need. However, I discovered already a while ago an alternative GRIP file download possibility with a much smaller date volume for the same sea area and other parameters. Saves me time compared to the PredictWind Offshore App.<\/p>\n
And today was bread baking day. Thus, for dinner I had lentil stew and freshly baked bread. I love this taste.<\/p>\n
