Thursday 13th October 2016-Open End 

Following the few miles up the river we turn to port passing a peculiar villa on top of a chimney. One can even rent the place as I find out a little later.
It's Thursday afternoon by now and I'm waiting for Bernard to show up with is hydraulic tractor trailer rig. 
Quite a sight to see her behind the tiny tractor and for a moment I wonder if she will not overwhelm it. 
No sweat, its a powerful beast and an hour later we are parked with a washed underwatership beside a beautiful Alizee catamaran. 
Couple of busy days follow, I'm glueing the second front winter and do general winter preparation work like oiling the engines, stowing the sails and killing tons of mosquitos which like to join me in the warm cabin. 
No way my friends! 
Now this wonderful summer draws to an end and soon I will return to the roots of my career, got a potential job offer in Southampton. 
Good thing there are direct flights from there to Nantes. 
So eventually you can follow the next adventures in 2017.
Might stay in French waters for a while or head on south we'll see, time will tell.
