It's lost its keel. Is it a Bendytoy?

I wonder if the Eiffel tower offers competitive rates for laying up one's boat. I must find out.

Maybe, or maybe not, as the Eiffel Tower stunt was in spring 2017, before Tanguy de Lamotte handed over the tiller of the Initiatives Coeur team to Sam.
Having said that, Sam and Tanguy had done the Transat Jacques Vabre together on the old boat in 2015, and again in 2017 on the new boat (formerly Maitre Coq on which Jeremie Bayou finished 4th in the last Vendée Globe).
FWIW, that looks like the old boat, which was originally the PRB in which Vincent Riou saved Jean le Cam off Cape Horn in the 2008-9 event
