Plunk in the middle of high pressures

We are plunk in the middle of high pressures. Light winds with a direction that's improving but right now we're going at 2kts under Main and Code 0, Last night for a few hours we were going at 6kts in the right direction (SE)!!!!! But that came to an end.

The Salamis from the Keri Keri butcher are growing some mold on them so we're going to have to wipe them down. Other than that nothing special is happening.

I watched a movie yesterday night taking place during the Tulip bulb craze and crash in Holland in 1634 that I actually knew about from the economics/finance book A random walk down Wall Street. Nice romantic drama but I stopped watching before the end because I didn't like the way it was headed (boy doesn't get girl and everything gets fucked up), Janneke whoa had watched it a couple days ago convinced me that the end would be ok so I restarted it and it was the best end they could have done considering how terrible things looked when I stopped! Still reading Naomi Klein. Her Trump branding idea is good. I wish she would be more to the point with more data: give me numbers to quantify the amplitude of the problem. But I'm still glad to read it.

OK today I tackle the watermaker. Check the halyards. Wipe the salamis.
Improve the wind gen support so it doesn't moves (5200 fix).
