About me

Marin d' eau douce autodidacte, après avoir écumé les lacs de ma région en canoë je construis il y à 25 ans mon premier bateau et apprends ainsi la voile. Amoureux de ma région et ses lacs (oulala, et de ma femme!) j' ai ensuite navigué sur un corsaire puis un Dufour 24, ingénieur du son de profession je me retourne maintenant vers la nature et les animaux où je redécouvre le calme et la plénitude. Je prends beaucoup de plaisir à faire découvrir et partager les trésors de ma région. Ma devise, l' humour indispensable. (pour les amateur de jazz ,le mat y s'dévisse) à bientôt dans le jura.

    Très sympa. Aucun problème.

    Very good and welcome. Boat which certainly marks its age a bit, but perfect for a family outing on the lake. Good sensations, when the breeze rises, while remaining manageable solo or with an inexperienced crew member.

    Super welcome from Stéphanie and Alain who arranged so that the very low level of the lake in this historic drought did not bother us too much, by moving the boat from its mooring at the Mercantine port. The boat is certainly old, but that is part of its charm. Equipped very correctly, it has all the qualities for navigation on Lake Vouglans: we were able to test it in very very calm weather (first part of the day) as well as with an increasingly strong wind (end of the day) where it showed fairly reassuring behavior (even if it showed a certain inertia in coming back upwind). We will come back.

    Stephanie and Alain are very friendly. The takeover and return of the boat was uncomplicated and worked out well. Alain even drove along spontaneously for a while, gave us a briefing on the boat and lots of tips. The boat is a bit older but everything works. It's great for spending some time on the water and looking at this beautiful lake from the water. We enjoyed it, many thanks to Stephanie and Alain!
