Hi
Have read with great interest your blog as we are heading in the opposite direction in an Oceanis 361 that we bought down here in 2015. We are in Gruissan and in one or two weeks, when the weather has gotten a little warmer, we will sail to Port San Louis and start the trip north, so we may see you along the way. You can read about our tour on facebook: S / Y Inuk (writes in English for family and friends abroad). Do you have the mast on board? How are you? Like a few pictures of how you fixed it. Sincerely. Claus and Chui Ping.

Hi Claus,
We chose to transport the mast, boom and rich by car from Travemünde to Port Napoleon
We have been pleased with that.
A) We can sail in small waves on the Rhine and Rhone without worrying about the 'scaffolding' holding.
B) We do not have to worry that the rig hits something when we sail
C) There is plenty of space
D) A minor repair was required on the mast bearing at the top requiring the mast to be removed.
The transport is not cheap. We paid 8.500 kr. We think it's worth the money and then drinks a few bottles of red wine less.
From Meuse we enter the Canal des Vosges, Petit Saône, Basse Saône and finally Rhone.
We update our position on our blog in the field "Here we are"
It could be really nice and interesting to meet on the road
