The can of paint Roy ordered arrived today. He was going to give the deck its final coat, and I was going to second-coat the roof, but it rained all day, so we couldn't.
I did the laundry and played with the weatherfax some more. Phoned the National Weather Service to find out about RTTY and Navtex. Was told they're both in plain English. Later, I phoned the software producer. Talked with a customer rep who was very nice and eager to please. Unfortunately, this was his first day on the job, so he knew even less about it than I did. He gave me a few suggestions, which I tried, but they didn't work. Maybe the problem is just crummy reception; maybe in Charleston or out on the open ocean it will come in better.
In the afternoon, Roy and I borrowed the truck and drove to the store for chicken and stuff.
We've arranged to go back in the water tomorrow, so we paid the bill of $512.15.
