What a terrific report on your expedition.
Much excellent photography.
I especially liked Fort Boyard and also the "Flying Machine".
Tres jolie !

One question. Many boats do not seem to have a GPS/Plotter. Is this normal in your area?

here is the site of the FLYFISH : http://www.flyfish6.com
The site don't work correctly but you can click at the end of the page.

We arn't many to have a plotter, it's very expensive (more than 1000 Euros with charts). Most of owners have a small GPS and cruise less than 5 nauticals from the coast.
