Where do 900,000 ticket holders stay for a week!? Amazing show though, hope I get to go to one soon.

I keep looking for the Schooner Voyager that I crewed on as a 18 old. I think she is in Eroupian waters, and rigged to the topsail rig as she was built with. A black steel hulled beauty, built for Transatlantic Racing. I know its impossible to photo every vessel in the Festival. As usual, a great ‘photo sail’.

Heidi Roy says:
the last 1/2 hr. was the most enjoyable way to start the day. I need to go to Brest !

They sold nine hundred thousand tickets this year?! We’ve got to get our derrières in gear on this side of the pond and change our focus to festivals and not commercial boat shows. Merci beaucoup!
Jonathan Margolis says:
More! More!
