14:16N 59:46W at 0945 GMT wpt 64nm distant ... so sometime later today might see Mojo anchored off Ste Anne/Le Marin, Martinique.
This started as a slow trip and eventually turned somewhat faster. I texted James that I was heading to 20N 30W unless he had better ideas? And he texted back 15N 30W, so I headed thataway and it all worked out quite nicely. Thanks James!
I may put AIS on silent a while so as not to disturb the locals until checked in but I'll blog again tomorrow and over the next few days, but perhaps not every day.
