A few dinghy sailors voyage to France! From bilge pump to Brittany in less than three years: a steep learning curve.
A dream for years, perhaps a life time. A brief overview of a family’s journey from their backgrounds in sailing, decision to buy a cruiser for their young family, boat selection, learning how to sail a big boat, planning the trip to France, crew selection for the passage, the big trip, maintenance issues and gear failure, a fabulous family French summer, and our Caribbean paradise Islands off the coast of western Europe!
This is a guide for those looking to take the big leap and sail to France.
