The crew of the catamaran Mistertong prepares for a coastal passage from the bay of Fort-de-France to Les Anses-d’Arlet, Martinique, while navigating around the arrival of the Transat Café-Laye race. Heavy rain and humidity during the night soak the interior, requiring the crew to dry gear and sift flour to remove weevils.1:10 Departure from the anchorage proves difficult when the bridle wraps around the chain, causing a snarl that takes 30 minutes to clear.4:36 Due to 25-knot gusts and the need to avoid race traffic, the crew opts to sail only with the headsail.1:55 Upon arrival at Les Anses-d’Arlet, the anchor drags twice despite 40 meters of chain deployed, prompting the owner to dive and inspect the hull and ground tackle.15:50 The owner spends 90 minutes cleaning the hull, noting that the Coppercoat antifouling remains effective, though the waterline requires more effort to scrub.35:03 The crew plans to remain in the area through the holiday season to manage boat maintenance and finances.28:27
