5 more amazing insights into sailing myths.... *Naked Figureheads...* Ships were always adorned with a topless female figurehead, despite the common ban on women, because her bare breasts were believed to be the only thing that could truly calm a raging, tempestuous sea. The logic is a masterpiece of male projection: women distract sailors and anger the sea, yet a carved woman must be sacrificed to the elements to appease them both. A polarizing double standard! *The Word "Pig"...* Uttering the name of the humble, porcine farm animal was strictly forbidden on a sailing ship, a bizarre taboo that made even the word itself an omen of shipwreck. The common theory is dark, but practical: pigs transported in wooden crates were often the only survivors of a wreck, leading superstitious sailors to believe the creature's name was a perverse magnet for disaster. *Cat's Sneezing Omen...* A ship’s cat was a prized, lucky companion, but if that particular feline companion sneezed, it was a sudden, irrefutable prophecy that a severe rainstorm was immediately on its way. Cats were revered because they hunted the disease-carrying rats that chewed through the critical ropes and wooden hulls. That sneeze was just an excuse to pamper a valuable crew member, or maybe a simple fur-ball warning. *Tattooed Pigs and Roosters...* Sailors often tattooed a pig on one foot and a rooster on the other, believing these barnyard animals were powerful talismans against a watery grave. These animals were often carried in lightweight, buoyant wooden crates as livestock. The logic was: if the ship sank, the pigs and roosters would float ashore, symbolically guiding the sailor to safety. *Killing the Albatross...* To harm or kill the majestic Albatross was to commit the ultimate nautical sin, inviting the full, unforgiving wrath of the sea upon the entire crew. This myth, powerfully immortalized in The Rime of the Ancient Mariner, was actually a clever cultural deterrent to stop hungry, bored sailors from killing a bird that was genuinely helpful for navigation.

Depuis notre retour mi-septembre,nous avons dû redoubler d'effort pour mettre le Rebelle à l'eau dans les temps. Après avoir finalisé le circuit de gaz (pour la cuisine), le système d’assèchement, le système de pilote, l'électronique, la carène, les filières, expertisé le bateau..., c'est ce jeudi 8 novembre à 16h que le Rebelle se jette à l'eau pour la première fois depuis 8 ans. Et cela n'aurait pas été possible sans votre soutien. Initialement nous pensions faire le baptême à la mise à l'eau du Rebelle. Mais nous n'aurions pas pu profiter de votre présence, et la météo ne s'y prêtait pas. C'était, pour nous, un jour stressant et pour cause, le moteur nous a même fait son coup de théâtre en boudant, ce qui nous a obligé à rejoindre le port de Kernevel tracté par un semi-rigide. Après plusieurs heures dans le cambouis et une belle vidange, le moteur chante désormais comme un nouveau né. Nous vous donnerons rendez-vous pour un beau baptême du Rebelle à la fin du premier trimestre 2019 avec un voilier fin prêt pour le début des stages de voile.
