I used to fish a lot and now haven't for many years bar the very odd line wetting ------- I do love boats and being on the water though.
Interesting that yesterday I was lying in bed reading a post from you and I thought - I will send a pic of this fishing boat that pulls in right opposite me - only about 30 metres away -- they go out for about a week at a time - it was about 4 or 4.30 am and I heard an engine ----------- which is very unusual at this time ---------- and, I got up an looked out the porthole and bugger me - it was that fishing boat heading out - so, you will have to wait for the pic.
I wanted to photograph it because last time it came in it was really heeling to stb ------ it's about 40' at a guess and a modern funny cat (I think) - with a sharpened bulb nose - looks really sleek - it's done a lot of work, so don't know how old - it's some sort of work model
I went for a walk to see why she was leaning over so much and all I could see inside was a bazillion pots all stacked on one side
I didn't ask because of the language ------- I will take a pic when she gets back in ----------------- I'll be here - containment just extended into May - no idea what happens after that

@pintohoo - are you still in France? Or maybe I am just reading your post late - you might have continued your journey.
How do you say 'Good Luck' to a sailor? is there a special phrase?
Anyway
Happy and safe sailing
