Deborah's tour starts with a trip to Martinique.  Marin is our first stop for check-in and a trip to the chandlers, for electric bits and other stuff....we were not able to get all we needed in St Lucia, so hope we have better luck here.  We have tested the sails again, although we were only able to sail about half way before the wind died and the engine has to go on. Wildlife sighted on the way up included a whale, obviously chasing a big fish for supper as something very large jumped out of the water.  The camera, of course, was nowhere near for this little display.

After the trip to the chandlers, we'll be overnighting in Sainte Anne, before heading south for Marigot Bay and Bequia. The humidity here is rising all the time, with nights as well as days being quite uncomfortable.

The photo is of a ship transporter.  They are busy welding the cradles in place to secure the boats on board for the long journey back to France.  It will leave here in the next couple of days in time for the Med season.
