About this trip

Émeraude is a wooden shark from 1950. It has all the 2015 safety equipment.

  • 3.5hp outboard motor on a side bracket
  • 2-year-old North Salis sails
  • Genoa on a furler
  • Aluminum mast and booms

Please send me a message before making a reservation. As I don't live locally, I need to make arrangements to be able to welcome you. Outings take place from early to late afternoon because there is no wind (thermal winds) in the morning.

It is moored on a buoy in the front row.

We use it for family outings or trips with friends for the day. Sleeping on board is not possible.

On the bay, it's easy to reach the Banc d'Argain, Arcachon, Île aux Oiseaux (Bird Island)...

It's the boat I've always dreamed of, a superb design, it sails upwind like few others!

9.60m of beauty, boaters know it, and it's not uncommon to get thumbs-up on the water.

I hope I can keep it because wooden boatyards are becoming increasingly rare here.

Feel free to contact me via Click & Boat messaging if you have any questions.
