DOMINICA

Motoring down the coast of Dominica we caught this lovely Kingfish.  We now have enough fish for the rest of the trip!  There were no moorings open for our size in Roseau  (the capital of Dominica) so the local boat helper put us "stern to" to a concrete dock with the anchor out in front in about 60 feet of water.  So now we're lee shore for the night with the stern in 18 feet of water and 15 yards from the shoreline with the wind coming a beam.  I know the writer of this blog will not get a wink of sleep tonight. 

Going back 2 days, the North loft in Le Saintes pulled through for us with the repaired main sail at 9am as promised and we were on our way by noon.   We are still going to be gentle with it as we have 400 miles to go.
