How far we've come since we met Hugo. In April 2017, he came to see us with his project:"I'm going to restore my Sea Foam and go on a tour of the Atlantic". A simple announcement, without frills nor any will to put forward. Just the desire to share his adventure through videos.
We weren't originally expecting this, but this simple project has taken a whole new turn over time. Because when Hugo attacks a construction site, he doesn't do half measures. His Sea Foam, he didn't just restore it, but he rebuilt it almost new!
Feel free to review the 10 previous videos to see how much work has been done. From the keel (which he didn't hesitate to put down) to the water tank he created, Hugo realized everything in a green corner with no other means than his imagination and the help of family and friends. Hats off Hugo, you have all our admiration!
Today comes the best, what Hugo has been dreaming of since the beginning of the project: the launching... In a construction site on the edge of the pond of Tau, his sea scum has returned to the sea. Without escaping the tradition of baptism with the champagne bottle broken at the bow.
Then comes the starting of the engine, the mast, the setting up of the sails, the loading of the things, so many small stages which naturally guide us towards the departure. But for the report of the first stage towards the Balearics, it will be necessary to wait until the next episode..
