Nous avons navigué sur cette "goélette" comme on dit en Polynésie (bateau-cargo, pouvant emporter un nombre réduit de passagers), de Papeete (Tahiti) à Bora-Bora, avec escale au petit matin à Taha'a.
We sailed on this "goélette", (schooner) as they say in Polynesia, (cargo boat, which can carry a reduced number of passengers), from Papeete (Tahiti) to Bora-Bora, with stopover in the early morning in Taha'a.

Je me suis attardée sous cet arbre pour prendre des photos, mais en fait c'était un prétexte pour m'enivrer du parfum de ses fleurs

Concordia was a steel-hulled barquentine that was built in Poland in 1992 for the West Island College, Montreal, Canada. She served as a sail training ship until she capsized and sank on 17 February 2010.
On 17 February 2010, SV Concordia encountered what the vessel's captain called a microburst[4] some 550 kilometres (300 nmi) southeast of Rio de Janeiro, Brazil in rough seas and high winds.[5] The vessel was knocked onto its side within 15 seconds[6] and eventually sank 20 minutes afterward.[7]
In September 2011, the Transportation Safety Board of Canada report found, "The wind speeds experienced by the vessel at the time of the knockdown were most likely in the range of 25 to 50 knots (46 to 93 km/h; 29 to 58 mph). While there was probably a vertical component to the wind, there is no evidence that a microburst occurred at the time of the knockdown." The report also found the vessel was operated in a way that did not allow it to, "...react to changing weather conditions appropriately and maintain the stability of the vessel."[3][8]
"The risk of a knockdown was not understood," said TSB board member Jonathan Seymour. As a result, "appropriate action" – including reducing sail, changing course or sealing water-ingress points – was not taken before the squall hit.
Certains bateaux ne restent pas longtemps au port, à peine arrivés, tout de suite déchargés et déjà repartis !
Some boats do not stay long in port, barely arrived, immediately unloaded and already left !
