Windmill thingamajiggy

Has anyone ever noticed those pretty little star shaped windmills on yachts? I have, and I reckon they're so pretty that I insisted that we need one.

Apparently they're wind generators, and they charge the batteries.

Xave then informed me that wind generators are good because, unlike solar panels, they are able to work overnight, and they take up much less space. (I am not informed enough to know which is more effective).

So, yesterday, Xave connected our pretty little star shaped thingamajiggy, & I ran around taking photos of it from every conceivable angle marvelling at the pure spunk of it.

... and last night, as the sun set, I watched it from the deck, and listened to it purringly charging the batteries in a fabulous & breezy manner, whilst inside our cabin, the vibrations roared like a freaking jet engine.

ALL NIGHT.

I'm a bit tired and thingy today..
