Embark on La Recouvrance !
More than anywhere else, in Brest, the call from the sea blows! So enjoy yourself, get on board! Embark on this superb sailing boat, La Recouvrance. Symbol of Brest, ambassador boat, it bears the name of a famous district of the city where the wives of sailors came to pray for the return of their son or husband.
The launching
This Brest schooner, a replica of a 19th century military ship, was launched in July 1992 in front of thousands of spectators, and in the middle of a swarm of small boats.
On this occasion, France 3 had made a report, and you should see the enthusiasm of the young reporter, with his pretty yellow jacket, which describes the operations (see video). This event always has economic repercussions, since this achievement is at the origin of the Guip shipyard, now an international reference in the rehabilitation of old ships.
Get on board!
It's up to you to embark, to you to sail... the boat offers half-day, full-day or multi-day trips!
