Currently sitting in Rock Sound, Eleuthra the clouds have moved in and the rain has begun as the front is coming through...With the long range antenna I am lucky to have found an open, free wifi signal...so Im spending my day with some rum, good tunes on the radio, and free internet....How do you spend your rainy days aboard???
Since Maine is my paradise and after a week of zero and sub zero weather it is raining like mad, almost 50 degrees, I have to say check the boat's winter cover because it is supposed to blow 50 S tonight!
Wondering where you - and others for that matter - get (that many) movies there? I.e., brought from home (DVDs, torrents, etc.), or there are some local sources like movie rentals, local TV, acceptable access to internet/wi-fi?
Just before we left this summer we bought a 2 TB hard drive and filled it with movies and tv shows. It's nice and compact, and has more viewing hours than we'l probably ever go through on our trip. (We also have one of those big folders of dvds, but that doesn't come out too often)
I take every peice of salty damp linnen and hang it in the rigging to let the rain rinse it. Catch as much fresh water as I can for my tank. I make soup, drink booze, and look over at land contiplating going ashore till I fall asleep.

Difficult to say which activity is the most enjoyable. All ideas are good. Just depends on the mood.
