This is the 15 meter
catamaran “Baies du Monde” sailing from the Atlantic to the Mediterranean as part of the project
Windincap.
The actual cruise started from the island of
Oléron, off the Atlantic coast of France last April and will end in Croatia next August after calling in twenty sea cities for few days. In each port groups of disabled people will be taken on board to share for some hours the experience of sailing.
The boat has been in Livorno since July 20 and will leave for Ostia (Rome) on July 25.

Just gorgeous photos, VP! This is a beautiful craft. I've never been on a catamaran, but it looks like fun. And what a great project!

I love how catamarans look. This is the biggest I've seen so far. I like its colorful markings and its advocacy.
That is a great catamaran! Love the top shot with the tower in the backgroud.
This is my favorite way of sailing!
What a wonderful project; I bet everyone is having a great time. I love the second photo where you can see the people on the catamaran.
Great stuff, these things are so important.
I prefer "monocoques" myslelf though I have to say your second photo makes me want to RUN back to where I've just come back from!
Love the background in the first photo too.
