Further South to Les Sables d'Olonne

Ile de NoirmoutierAt 1000hrs on the 15th May we set sail for the Ile de Yeu after 5 days exploring the Ile de Noirmoutier.

We had to circumnavigate some really shallow areas before setting a southerly course.

We tried putting "The Lady" up but no wind.
The Lady, Cruising Chute














So, using our trusty Volvo engine we motored to the Ile d'Yue only to find find there was a major festival and we could not get in. So we motored another 25 miles to arrive at Le Sables d' Olonne - home of the Vendee Globe sailing events.

Our short ( 5mins)  video here shows you the trip and fun we had.
