Perhaps it was here that theship's administrators discovered the presence of young Joséph Tréguier. Despite the large size of ship and crew, Tréguier certainly didn't go unnoticed—he appears in the rôles after all. The Prince de Conti, meanwhile, was several hundred kilometres to the west at Cabo Verde. There was surely no communication between the ships, so it is difficult to imagine how both ended up at Foulpointe at the same time. Did Tréguier know he would rejoin his crew? Was it all down to luck?
