Well, we are off to retreive the boat from just under 100km 'as the crow flies' from residence, back to the home port at La Rochelle. Fits the profile, but checking it with LR. Just waiting for the correct tide/weather/wind combo.

I live in Boulogne and my boat is in the marina here.
The capitainerie updates me frequently via email and their advice at the moment is 100k from the port but of course an individual is only allowed 100k from his home 'as the crow flies' .
At the moment I can take the boat out but not enter other ports as they are closed to foreign flagged vessels and I 'think' French pleasure craft from another port but not 100% certain of that.

On the upside Bars and cafes reopened yesterday and my next door wine bar was full and buzzing - 1 metre separation here!

No problems here on the Atlantic coast. No limit on travel since yesterday and ports open. Pretty busy putting boats in from the dry in the local. We need the crane, but first chance is Sat morn.
