What this video covers

The crew of the catamaran Mistertong prepares for an upcoming passage while anchored in Sainte-Anne, Martinique, balancing ongoing maintenance with final provisioning. Djé investigates a structural concern at the chainplate of the upper shroud, confirming the absence of wood rot despite previous concerns about the angular fiberglass layup. He reinforces the area with resin and repairs cosmetic damage to the deck and cleats. Meanwhile, the crew monitors fuel levels, aiming to maintain an 80-liter reserve in jerrycans, and organizes the interior, including the sale of a Dometic refrigerator. During a recent overnight stay in a crowded anchorage, the boat’s Delta anchor dragged in 35-knot gusts after fouling on a coral head, requiring the crew to remain vigilant. The team plans to depart for a longer voyage in early December, pending favorable weather windows and consistent trade winds. They continue to coordinate with other cruisers in the area to finalize their departure strategy.
