We used to have everything in soft bags and jambed into deep lockers, so generally we heard nothing but water and wind. I would spend time finding the noises and stop them else i would go nuts, but that's just me.<br />2. Lost gel. They are rolling round somewhere. See point 1 & fix 2 birds with 1 stone.<br />3. Loose flapping things. Stop all flapping, tie stuff tight. Noisey stuff will fray and tear in no time.<br />4. Inconsiderate waves. Refer Murphy's Marine Law about the biggest wave arrives just after a change into dry gear, or in the 5 second interval when your wetweather gear is off.<br />5. Winds that blow you the wrong way. Add a mast and sail next time. :-)David Tangyehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07790282929624876431noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28434997.post-19567281558575183212009-06-20T05:38:55.243+00:002009-06-20T05:38:55.243+00:00Can the person who maintains this blog delete the ...Can the person who maintains this blog delete the spam entries?

I've got pillows crammed in lockers, bungs in all the cupboard holes, wine glasses are lashed down. What I can't quiet are the wires for the electronics that run through our new aluminum mast. grrrr... The old wood mast didn't have that problem.<br /><br />Oh, I also am wondering about what the mountains are going to do to the ocean you are crossing through. You are between the Johnson and Palmyra Atolls making a beeline for the Kiribati Islands. Can you see anything?<br /><br />I'm not doing well with my walking. According to my new RozPedometer I manage about 3400 steps a day; of which 2100 are walking the dogs every morning. I need to figure something out here. Going paddling tomorrow in Ventura Harbor.<br /><br />Chat later, SindySindy Davishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08459082246793185441noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28434997.post-23316760273360753752009-06-19T21:11:04.016+00:002009-06-19T21:11:04.016+00:00Hi Hari, my name is Nicole and I'm Roz's p...Hi Hari, my name is Nicole and I'm Roz's program director. <br />You can find out more about Roz's boat and her voyage at www.rozsavage.com. You can follow along with her journey by checking out the RozTracker. Take a look at the top right hand side of this page - you can click on it and see all of her blogs, Tweets, videos, photos and her actual location in the sea. <br />All of Roz's electricity on board is supplied by the solar panels.

You may see it Monday evening, but most likely Tuesday the 23rd. I observe and report at http://www.CrescentMoonWatch.org/ every month.<br /><br />You need long and lat, local time, GMT, cloud cover, angel of crescent to the sun, left or right of sunset. Your report will blow them away ... I will alert them to the possibility you may report. Or post on your blog and I will report for you. <br /><br />Re: Parallel universe and black holes ...
