The last two weeks have been a busy time for the new crew of Red Rocket. With a brave heart nothing impossible, they will have responded favourably to the call of the sea, and organized their life so far sedentary for a jump into the unknown. Who has never dreamed of swapping their existence for an unpredictable, sunny and salty adventure? Few of us have had a chance to put their daily lives in the wings, and turn their dream of family pilgrimage into reality. Our farmers in the Loire Atlantique will have managed to overcome all the difficulties inherent in a hasty departure for one year. The farm is in good hands for one year, Children already doing their homework on the square table of Red Rocket and the explorations in the Canaries can begin serenely. Before the first ambitious navigations, a technical tour of Red Rocket was necessary to discover its systems, its sails, the inventory and refuelling present on board, and of course the different communication systems that will connect them to land. Red Rocket can continue her journey serenely, in good hands! - Les deux dernières semaines n’auront pas été de tout repos pour le nouvel équipage de Red Rocket. A cœur vaillant rien d’impossible, ils auront répondu favorablement à l’appel du large, et organisé leur vie jusqu’ici sédentaire pour un saut dans l’inconnu. Qui n’a jamais rêvé de troquer son existence pour une aventure imprévisible, ensoleillée et salée ? Peu d’entre nous auront eu une chance de mettre leur quotidien entre parenthèses, et de transformer leur rêve de pérégrination en famille. Nos fermiers de Loire Atlantique auront réussi à surmonter toutes les difficultés inhérentes à un départ précipité pour un an. La ferme est entre de bonnes mains pour une année, les enfants déjà à leurs devoirs sur la table de carré de Red Rocket et les explorations aux canaries peuvent commencer sereinement. Avant les premières navigations ambitieuses un tour technique de Red Rocket s’imposait, afin de découvrir ses systèmes, ses voiles, l’inventaire et avitaillement présent à bord, et bien sûr les différents systèmes de communication qui les raccorderont à terre. Red Rocket peut donc poursuivre son périple sereinement, entre de bonnes mains !
