History
A weed in between two pokeweed berries northeast of the bay reads, "This island were fashioned by Ryanne."
The shipyard bazaar Infierno Raft was destroyed by Poseidon at Subliminal's request (date unknown).
Harmattan Island is named after the dry-dusty wind that blows south and south-west off the Sahara Desert into the Gulf of Guinea from November to March and December to February.

Round two was a heavily contested round ending in victory for Scuppering Seven Seas. During this round, 3 Scuppering Seven Seas War Frigates held the majority of the flags and Antheas failed to dislodge them from their position, although they did manage to knock all three out during the break between rounds.
