After years of oceanic happiness, I am parting with my faithful boat.
The Aquarelle is a laminated polyester sailboat, built individually to Jean Michelot?€?s design, and launched in 1989 under the French flag.
Length H.T 13 M , Width : 4 M , Draft : 1,80 M , Weight : 14 tons,
It is a coastal rig for the great voyage around the world, conceived and equipped to sail in family and in safety with a large central cockpit, 2 large double cabins, 1 large saloon, 1 toilet, 1 large kitchen, 1 workshop, 1 sail locker and many lockers and storage.
