Well, it ain't always fun and games

And the concept of a perpetual motion machine just escaped us. . .
Nuts. Wind pooped out just like the daggum forecast predicted. Around 1830 UTC (1130 Pacific ship’s time) we stowed the main and screecher and began motoring single engine. Apparent wind is too low to motor sail, so we’re now chugging along at a bit over 6 knots SOG thanks to a bit of a current on the stern.
Might as well:
-make water (check)
-make HOT water (check)
-observe how the slightest thin layer of clouds dramatically reduces the solar power output (cough, gag, check)
But hey - it’s HOT SHOWER DAY!!!
Always look on the bright side of your life, Monte Python!
