The wind followed, until the ship neared the legendary green coast of Brittany. \u201eYou would pass this by?\u201c The wind was shocked. \u201eThis is not acceptable!\u201c The wind had a plan: it stirred itself into a frenzy out in the Bay of Biscay, exactly where the ship was headed. The ship had no choice but to seek shelter, anchoring in the Baie de Douarnenez.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-10177 size-large\" src=\"https:\/\/timbercoast.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/02-614x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"614\" height=\"1024\" srcset=\"https:\/\/timbercoast.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/02.jpg 614w, https:\/\/timbercoast.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/02-180x300.jpg 180w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 614px) 100vw, 614px\" \/><\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom: .0001pt;\">It didn\u00b4t take long before curious fishermen approached to admire the ship\u00b4s fine lines, ask a few questions, learn her name, indiscrete questions about her age. Just as they were leaving, the ship\u00b4s cook leapt out of the galley shouting the magic word: KOUIGN AMANN!! The fishermen were startled to hear their favourite word (Butter Cake in the Breton language) and turned back with gleaming eyes. \u201eWe cannot go ashore, we are bound at anchor\u201c, the cook explained. \u201eHow can it be? We are so close to one of the most mouth-watering delicacies of all Europe, yet we cannot taste it!\u201c She cried. They nodded, understanding the gravety of the situation. \u201e<i>On verra que est-ce que on peut faire&#8230;<\/i>We will see what we can do&#8230;\u201c A happy chorus followed them back to shore: \u201e<i>Merciiiiiii!<\/i>\u201c<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom: .0001pt;\">The ship buzzed with anticipation. Would the fishermen remember? Would they really deliver this world-renowned cake of butter, sugar and caramel with its unbelievable ratio of butter to everything else? Night fell over the quiet ship. \u201eKouign amann&#8230;\u201c the shipmates murmured in their sleep.<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom: .0001pt;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-10179 size-large\" src=\"https:\/\/timbercoast.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/03-1024x768.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" srcset=\"https:\/\/timbercoast.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/03-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/timbercoast.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/03-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/timbercoast.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/03.jpg 1280w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom: .0001pt;\">Another bright day illuminated the cliffs of Brittany. The ship was as busy as a beehive: greasing, rust-busting, oiling, splicing and whipping new gaskets, new safety lines, cleaning the galley, the fo\u00b4c\u00b4sle, cooking, monitoring the anchor, taking bearings, taking meteorological measurements, shipmates learning knots and lines in preparation for crossing the Bay of Biscay. They had almost forgotten their buttery dreams.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom: .0001pt;\">A lookout ran to the watch officer:\u201c Boat approaching starboard! A fishing vessel! The boat appears to have a bearing that will lead to sure collision! There is only one explanation&#8230; Someone call the cook!\u201c<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom: .0001pt;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-10181 size-large\" src=\"https:\/\/timbercoast.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/04-1024x768.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" srcset=\"https:\/\/timbercoast.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/04-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/timbercoast.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/04-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/timbercoast.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/04.jpg 1280w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom: .0001pt;\">Painters were thrown onboard and the little fishing boat secured next to the <i>Avontuur<\/i>. The beaming faces of Yves and Jean-Claude appeared, eager to jump aboard and tour the ship. The crew were excited to welcome them. Sadly, rules and regulations stood in their way: much as the crew cannot step off the ship while only at anchor and not \u00b4cleared in\u00b4, nor can anyone board the ship, even when bringing pure gold in the form of caramelised butter cake! As they stayed on their boat and the crew on their ship, bureaucracy could not stop the friendly exchange of tales about ships, ocean-crossings and the good old days. They met all the crew, offered advice about local carpenters and sailmakers, and as the evening breeze rocked their little boat, Jean-Claude finally reached into the the deckhouse and silence fell. With grin he emerged, proudly bearing a package containing TWO large Kouign Amanns, still warm from the organic bakery in the town of Crozon! \u201e<i>Il faut les manger tout suite!<\/i> You must eat them soon!\u201c Yves insisted. The crew assured him that he had nothing to worry about: the kouign ammans would not see the sun set! The Captain emerged with a few souvenirs for the fishermen of this unexpected encounter. They cast off their painters and called back to the ship \u201eGood luck, fair winds, and following seas!\u201c The crew replied \u201e<i>La Bretagne ca te Gagne<\/i>!\u201cBrittany will win you over! And that is a sure statement. The lookout reported: \u201eFishing vessel to starboard, heading away from us, our heroes of the Bay of Douarnenez!\u201c<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom: .0001pt;\">The crew gathered around the compass to share a slice of happiness: the very first tasting experience of long promising voyage to the West Indies.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>-Giulia &amp; Athena<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>You can support our crew, the ship, and our project by buying premium direct trade AVONTUUR Product from our\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.en.timbercoast.de\/\">ONLINE SHOP.<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-10183 size-large\" src=\"https:\/\/timbercoast.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/05-1024x768.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" srcset=\"https:\/\/timbercoast.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/05-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/timbercoast.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/05-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/timbercoast.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/05.jpg 1280w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-10185 size-large\" src=\"https:\/\/timbercoast.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/06-1024x768.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" srcset=\"https:\/\/timbercoast.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/06-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/timbercoast.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/06-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/timbercoast.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/06.jpg 1280w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>La Bretagne, ca te gagne!
