From St Cast we moved on to St Quay Portrieux, another large and somewhat impersonal sort of marina. Here they have good facilities, if a little dated and a large quayside eateries complex with about 7 different restuarants with varying prices. Staff are very friendly and efficient Unfortunately, it feels a bit like a motorway service station , and marina is overpriced for the quality of place.
Also the French have a habit of charging multihulls at 1.5 times the normal rate regardless of their actual size. This in Watanga’s case is a little unfair as she is substantial narrower than most. Meaning I only take up the same space as a number of similar length monohulls chiefly the motorboats. hey ho!
Now those of you who followed the blog during our journey round Britain may remember we said we found no midges during our time in Scotland. Now we know why, they have emigrated to Brittany. Rather bizarrely these and many others suddenly covered the boat way out to sea. An hour later they were all gone again
Today we moved on to Lezardrieux from where we will return to British Waters going to Guernsey. I hope I’ve filled all the forms in correctly!
