FDF

We are currently sailing past the port of Fort de France, this boat's home (registered) port. She used to be named Divinci when she used to sail these waters as a short term charter cat but is now named Pouplier II after the owner.
The wind has picked up a bit and we are ghosting along at 6.5 knots under a sky full of stars. The wind keeps varying as the wind is coming over the island and its many mountain peaks. It will take us about 4 hours to get far enough north to minimize these effects.
We've seen a little phosphorescence in the water tonight. Nothing as magical as Cartagena but still pretty cool to watch.
