A story of abandonment and rebirth, a long-term educational and cooperative path.
We chose to start with a long restoration far from the shipyards, with little money and without haste. Then a lot of sailing, at all hours of the day and night, throughout the year, to learn to sail in any weather.
A community management will follow, to support the activities of the association, to bring more and more people closer to Classic Sailing, to be an example and save other boats at risk of extinction.
