5 miles off of Salisbury, Dominica

Heading due south toward Martinique. Under full sail plus engines, as we must make landfall by sunset at 1830 hrs. Sistership Impala has chosen a routing closer to the coast to take advantage of lift from a rain systen to our west, but so far our strategy is working. Impala left the cruise ship dock a half hour ahead of us after taking on water. We are gaining on them!
A parrot landed in the avocado tree as we were sauteeing dorado fish at. Mike and Daria's house up on the mountain. It is on a plateau 2000 feet above Rouseau, overlooking the sea
