Fast boats for all you dreamers out there...

                         fast boats...

And two great sailing videos...

Alain Gautier and Michelle Desjoyeaux frolicking in Biscay prior to 1999 TJV. They capsized shortly after the start. There is nothing in offshore sailing that comes close to these boats. Too 'hairy' for most.  The first song is 'street symphony' by Monica... the second is of course by Tears for Fears.  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QZDS3miKQCc 

Defi Petit Navire - french racing in the Douarnenez Bay.  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FWINygISxDE
