28 August 2010 47:43.32N 03:59.38W Left Audierne 10.00, following the
leading lines down the river. Virtually no wind, but glorious day. Motored a
lot, then sailed up to the Glénans islands, famous for the sailing school
founded by French resistance fighters after WWII. We picked up a buoy (not at
our first attempt) at 17.30 and settled down to drinks & dinner. The spot
is idyllic, quite well protected from all but northerly weather, and has the
only coral beaches in |
