Entre Terre et Der - 3 Dutch guys go to France

Hubert, Rene and me managed to get extend the summer just a bit, and got away to the Lac du Der in France. A small boat meeting was organised by Asseil (www.asseil.fr/) and promoted by Voile Aviron (voileaviron.org/), an organisation to promote sailing with human propulsion (no engines).
We got good company, fantastic cheeses, music, sunshine, and felt like we had been away for a week. Hope to do this again.

Great feel of the event. What fun!! So many different boats.

[@Canoesailor]

yes, all these boats on the horizon, lug rigs, great view

[@mikeu5380]

Fabulous! Thank you for your generosity in sharing the raid with us. I wonder if you've ever caught up with the legendary Roger Barnes, now living and sailing in Brittany.

[@Canoesailor]

Thanks! His name goes around in these circles indeed, but never met Roger ;)

Nice Koos! I though I saw a Swedish flag in the race, will there be any pictures from your east coast tour soon?

[@Canoesailor]

A Swedish flag? Interesting...
Not soon I think, am Justin dustballing the canoe now, but it will come, looking forward, cold outside, editing inside

[@sailoutofagarage6212]

@@Canoesailor At 2.02. is that not a Swedish flag on the top? Perhaps the weather make me see wrong?

[@Canoesailor]

@@sailoutofagarage6212 ah it is an English boat, not sure about the black flag on top

[@arjen-de-vries]

Koos, are you aware of that “the plank” was a measure for troublesome sailors? 😂

[@Canoesailor]

Uh oh, keelhauling?
