- Figero Solo Yachts

Erwan Taberly Figero
17th June 09 – Concarneau to Port Haliguen on the eastern side of the Quiberon peninsula.
Left Concarneau with the intention of landing on Ile de Groix had to motor sail most of the way. Unfortunately when we arrived in Port Tudy on Ile De Groix the marina was full and we got waved away. Cuileann declared that we should head for La Trinite sur mer and La Dolce Vita proposed Port Haliguen. We proceeded to Port Haliguen and had an interesting motor sail through La Teignouse and it’s many rocks and light houses.
Tried to catch some fish but like the Dastardly Dongle they to were elusive, but at 6.5 knots you cant blame them.
The marina in Port Haliguen is impressive and the facilities are very good.
The Figero Solo yacht race was in port for the week.
Had a walk around Port Haliguen at 23:00 hours and not a sinner was to be seen especially in a pub.
18th. June 09 – Leaving Port Haliguen in transit for Port de Crouesty.
Ta Ta for now. Nearly time to put out fenders etc.
