The days of the Flying Dutchman are numbered.

Very nice.

For a moment there, I was wondering if the Dutch Woman heading was all about some jumbie stories. Berbice being a former Dutch colony has several stories regarding Dutchman and Jumbie.

To this day, some villages in Berbice still perform certain types of rituals regarding the Village Master who was/is a Dutchman.
