TAX
There is a $2 Tax when visiting
Tintamarre collected by the charters for
every person visiting the island on
behalf of the French Gov't. Tintamarre is
part of  St.Martin's  nature preserve.
You can see one of the signs on the
road driving towards Club O near the
salt ponds, and on Tintamarre.
Dolphins, sea turtles and spotted eagle
rays inhabit the reserve and can be
observed on occasion...
Salt water in his veins!!
Not only did Philippe start sailing at the age
of seven as his father did, but that Philippe
also happens to  be a descendant of the
famous French "Corsaire"  Francois Ripaud
De Montaudevert. 1755-1814

A "Corsaire" "Filibuster" or "Privateer" was
issued letters of mark by the government to
differentiate them from Pirates whose captured
treasures never made it to the Kings coffers.
