What this video covers

The crew of the catamaran Mistertong relocates from the anchorage at Sainte-Anne to the Trois-Îlets in Martinique to avoid congestion during the upcoming Tour des Yoles regatta.20:02 The transit covers the distance past the Diamond Rock, where the boat maintains 7 knots of speed in 20 knots of wind with two reefs in the mainsail and a full genoa.24:54 Upon arrival at Trois-Îlets, the crew evaluates the anchorage, noting the calm, protected water provided by surrounding mangroves, despite the lack of water clarity and the presence of muddy bottom conditions.40:47 The move serves as a strategic base for the owners to access work and perform boat maintenance, including planned repairs to the chainplates.32:18 During their stay in Sainte-Anne, the crew observed the arrival of the 32-meter trimaran formerly sailed by Francis Joyon, currently used by Guirek Soudé for training ahead of a solo, against-the-wind circumnavigation attempt.5:23 The crew emphasizes the necessity of balancing proximity to infrastructure for repairs with the desire for secluded, quiet anchorages.45:38
