Web series / A sea froth bought for a can of beer!


Sometimes the boat stories start well. Hugo traded a Ecume de Mer for a beer! Admittedly, the sailboat asked him to do some renovation work, but he also offered him many joys to be at sea, to sail on his own sailboat.

Since 2017, Hugo has been telling us about his adventures with Ann Alé ("It's gone" in Creole), his Ecume de Mer, which he has completely renovated. Already 35 video episodes in which he explains the work done on his sailboat before going to sea ( Watch the first 10 episodes on this incredible work! ). Now, here he is explaining to us the incredible encounter he had with this sailboat.

While Hugo is finishing his studies, one owner wants to "get rid" of his Ecume de Mer, which has not sailed for 3 years. Failing to find 1 euro in his pockets, Hugo ended up exchanging it for a beer found in the back of his car! A beautiful story that allowed Hugo to sail with his friends and then embark on a complete renovation before setting sail with the objective of crossing the Atlantic.

Readers of Bateaux.com know that today Ann Alé continues her journey in the Caribbean. This episode makes a nice comeback on the beginning of this navigator's adventure. A beautiful story that binds us even more to this young man.
