boat hire in La Ciotat · 3 C Composites — Bongo (2004)

Dear fellow sailors, This beautiful summer of 2026 will soon come to an end. The long July evenings are still here, but not for much longer… August is arriving, with its heat. Let's enjoy the coolness that the wind, blowing across the sea, will surely delight us! But I suggest we extend our pleasure of getting together and sailing during our Indian summer, which promises to be very mild this year. How about a weekend in the Calanques, now peaceful again and adorned with shimmering autumn colors, around my wood-burning stove and to the sound of Maria Callas or someone else? How about admiring the magnificent sailboats of the Voiles de Saint-Tropez from my boat? For the most daring and adventurous among you, I invite you to join me at the end of autumn and sail towards warmer climes by participating alongside me in a transatlantic crossing. For those who know me, I've completed three transatlantic crossings, the last one in 2020/2021. The trade winds await you with me, and I always return enchanted by these unique experiences in our sometimes rather predictable lives! I will put all my expertise, my passion and knowledge of the sea, and the exceptional reliability of Popi, my boat, at your service. Summer is drawing to a close, but our dreams are still here, close at hand, within our grasp. Fair winds to all, Stéphane, your captain.
