Out of the Clutches of La Rochelle.

Out of the Clutches of La Rochelle.


Finally! I cannot actually believe this is happening. There are currently 5 people working on our boat to get everything finished. The solar panels where glued on this morning, and now the electrical wiring is being finalized. The NMEA link to the fusion radio is being installed, and the water maker is being primed. Some fuses are re-wired in the last minute. But law and behold, everything is finished. We utilized the 2 hours French lunch break, to collapse the bikes, and to fuel up. We even managed to sneak in a visit to admire the the amazingly light and streamlined Catana 42 “Mandarina” that is moored next to us. What can possibly hold us back? Wait... Where is Luna? With all the activity of the day, someone opened a hatch, and Luna quickly seized the opportunity to hide. Not as a stowaway (because she is quite legal) but to hide.... 45 minutes later we are on our way.
