Folks out here have come to expect that if there is only one boat in a large anchorage and another boat, lets say that is flying a French flag, comes in that that French flagged boat is going to anchor right on top of you.  Today we saw a medium size cruise ship (Silver Whisper) come in and anchor in the outer harbor.  A short time later a 5 masted Cruise Ship came in and anchored nearly on top of them.  We are not sure but will check and update the blog but we think the 5 master is French flagged.  After some sort of intervention by radio and visits from local officials the 5 master picked up anchor and moved well back and behind the Silver Whisper.
We need to find out what they did to get them to move - maybe we can use the same tactics next time!
