Mapping the terrain
As part of planning out the trilogy of mysteries I'm writing that feature Ron Anejo I needed to create a map of the island of Kayakoo, where the story takes place. To a certain number of people, my fictional island won't seem quite so fictional, but that's how it goes.
Kayakoo is located in the West Indies, near the southern end. It is one island of several in the country and not that far from Onion Island, which is a part of St. Voracious. Just a day sail if you are so inclined.
The boat you see is Ron's Danish fishing boat, MeinGott. Here she is in close up.

Glad you enjoyed it. The name was simply a play on some of the boat names of people I was sailing with. People sometimes call their boat some variation of FREEDOM or they'll go for an ironic name (like "Second Chance"). This boat needed a German name, for obvious reasons, and sometimes, when people new to sailing find themselves in the middle of a storm, in the middle of the ocean, it's the phrase that comes to mind. Nothing more.
Why did Ron decide to call his boat "My God" in German?
