La Ciotat

Lady Michelle is currently berthed in La Ciotat, France, undergoing general maintenance work before departing next month for Cape Town. We would also like to congratulate Brett on his promotion to the new Captain of Lady Michelle, and wish him the best of luck.

End of Summer

Well our summer charter season is all but over. It has been a fantastic & successful season and we all look forward to new & exciting adventures for the future. Thanks to everyone for supporting us and helping us get the job done.

Cassis, France

Charter 5 of the summer is well underway and going very well. Lady Michelle is currently anchored off the French seaside village of Cassis. Next stop is Marseilles before returning to Monaco in a couple of days. Then, finally, we have a short rest before starting our last charter of the summer.

Nowhere in Particular

Well we are coming to the end of charter number 4, and then it is straight into #5. Other than that, there is not much to report. We have spent the majority of our time in the South of France recently but did get to enjoy a couple of days in Sardinia over the weekend. As a side note we would all like to wish John Dane (Trinity Yachts) the best of luck sailing at the Olympics in Quingdao, and on behalf of all the jaapies aboard would like congratulate Dominique, Penny & Kim on a great job representing South Africa in the Yngling class - well done girls

St Tropez

Having cruised from Croatia via Sicily, Sardinia & Rome, Lady Michelle arrived today in Saint Tropez, France. The next few days will see us visiting Isle de Porquerolles, Marseille and then finally Monaco where our cruise ends. After a short break, it is straight into a fully booked charter season.
