Walking Seagull

 
 
 
"La mouette" (The seagull)
is the name of a local association of people
lucky enough to own a "pointu"( name of local fishing boats)
Those people protect old ships
and fight to keep them in a world
of modern motorships.

I live old sailboats, so I had to look up more information about the Pointu. They are beautiful, little fishing boats. So glad people still love and use them. They are not just a boat, but a way of life. Hope a fleet of them continues in your harbor.

What a wonderful way to preserve cultural heritage !


Bon vent à toutes les mouettes !
