Lancelot I our Beneteau First 40.7 will be heading for the 3rd Annual Les Voiles De Saint Barths.

Saint Barthélemy lies at the crossroads ofmaritime routes (17°54'N - 62°50'W), and is a sailor's paradise with its protected environment and renowned underwater world.

Geologically, it is the oldest ofthe Antilles islands. Its landscape of hills and valleys issurrounded by magnificent little islands such as Fourchue, Frégate, or Pain de Sucre, where the majestic Pelican (mascot of the island) suspends itsflight, while iguana parade elegantly under theshade of a gaïac tree or latanier palm.

The tradewinds whisper regularly, and the waves are generally not too aggressive.

On the Quai de General Gaullein Gustavia, generations of sailors gather and sharetheir tall tales at Le Select. In the evening, sailboats of all sizes rock gently on their moorings in Colombier ornear Corossol, while their crews savor a traditional “tipunch” before dining on local lobster or red snapper.
