In a few words

We are offering you a one-way trip.

We are leaving from Lorient and going to Pornichet. On board the boat, we sleep in a different place every night, either at anchor or in the port.

It's about learning to travel by sail, slowly, quietly, and in complete autonomy.

You participate in all maneuvers and learn to take a day watch under the guidance of a qualified and patient professional skipper.

This is a first cruise which we hope will inspire you to go further (Spain, Portugal, England, Ireland...)




The highlights

  • A one-way ticket to go further
  • Taking over the day watch and responsibility for the ship
  • Discover different places every night

Another fantastic trip on Laurent's sailboat. We sailed from Lorient to Pornichet on his boat in good conditions, even though we sometimes lacked a bit of wind. Laurent is an excellent skipper, very patient and easy to teach, readily letting us take the helm and participate in the maneuvers. We sailed both upwind and downwind, allowing us to hoist the spinnaker and spend a night at anchor. As a bonus, we even got to see some dolphins on the first day.
