Last year Zoe and I commenced operation “Oui Oui Baguette” to move our boat, Scarlet, from Gosport to La Rochelle in France. This was interrupted by a small engine fire which left us stranded in the Brittany port of Quiberon over winter to make repairs.
Anyway, we moved the boat to La Rochelle a month ago. Today we commence “Operation Churro”. We plan to leave La Rochelle shortly and in a single leg of 36-40 hours in the Bay of Biscay arrive at Hendaye on the French/Spanish border.
The orcas were attacking boats in this area about a month ago but since then seem to have moved west and are now heading south from Galicia to Lisboa so we should be safe from them (fingers crossed). Weather looks ok. We will probably be motoring for the first part with the hope we can sail from later today.
