A change of scenery in Cannes! Although the century-old boats are doing well, they couldn’t face the choppy sea in the Bay of La Napoule this Wednesday due to a violent westerly mistral.
Winds exceeding thirty knots in gusts in the morning, with occasional lulls that sometimes led people to believe the weather was about to improve…
The anticipated midday calm failed to settle over the Croisette despite the arrival of a swelling cloud mass approaching from the East over the mountains.
The Traditional Yachts and the Dragons remained wisely moored at Laubeuf dock, allowing everyone to attend to their tasks, whether mending a tear, redoing a splice, checking a rabbet, enhancing the appearance, or embarking on an adventure…
But isn’t Cannes a convivial and magical rendezvous?
