Yves Jourdan and Barbara Beeckman - OCC Interview with Yves Jourdan and Barbara Beeckman

Ocean Cruising Club Members, Yves and Barbara, have been living aboard S/V MedioVas since 2019 and are currently cruising in New Zealand. Barbara (a Vet from Belgium) occasionally finds work when visiting French island such as St Pierre and Guadeloupe. Yves (a former French Naval Officer) retired early after commanding the Naval base on Mayotte. Their voyage began in the Indian Ocean and has taken them to some unusual destinations. Cruising the Canadian Maritimes to Montreal was the highlight of their voyage thus far. Their plan is to continue westward from New Zealand visiting New Caledonia and the Solomon Island along the way.
