LOCAL HERO



Jean-Pierre Dick was born in Nice in 1965.



He's a great  seaman ,skipper and solo-yachtsman .

 
He took part and /or won many races all over the world .
Among them, the Vendée-Globe, the Barcelona World Race ,
the Transat Jacques Vabre ,the Route du Rhum or the Tour de France à la voile .

 
Between two races , he likes to sail back to the city where he was born .


His boat seems far too big for my camera ,
but seems so small among the waves ..

Le bateau: superbe. L'histoire: passionnante. Le fond d'écran (avec les gouttes de pluie:) Je ne suis pas fan. Remarque, c'est peut-être parce que j'habite à Seattle... Vero (French Girl in Seattle)

I think it's a catamaran. The color is a lovely blue, I have not seen such a blue boat.
Really beautiful images.
