The family crew spanning three generations took only 15 days to make the 2800 miles of ocean from Lanzarote to Martinique, without any mishaps spoiling the great mood on board.
The champagne was uncorked as soon as the start line was crossed at 1410 local time, and the welcome committee, composed of the Cornell Sailing Team and the Tourism Office of Le Marin were on the dock ready to take the lines and extend a warm welcome with lovely local flowers and much appreciated traditional Martinique rum!
The next boat to arrive will be the Australian catamaran Vivant, expected tomorrow morning.
Mercredi Soir’s crew are happy to arrive: parents Gilles and Stephanie, their children Tom and Sam, their aunt Lise and grandfather Etienne
