Emma
then ...
A klipperaak built in Belgium in 1905, Emma spent the first 60 years of
her life carrying cargo along the canals of France. Towed by mules with
a little help from the wind and occasionally the skipper and his wife.
Amazingly, her first engine was only fitted in 1970. Thirty years
afterwards, Liz and René Jacquot saw her beauty and potential, and
waved their magic wand...
Emma
today ...
Another century, another world later, but the same unhurried pace.
Lovingly restored and now a fully-equipped floating home accommodating
up to six guests. Why not return to another time without giving up the
comforts of modern life? Visit ancient villages and medieval castles,
taste regional wines in the vineyards, explore local markets, walk or
cycle along the towpath in the shade of ancient plane trees, or just
soak up the sun.
Your
Cruising Home on the 300-Year Old Canal du Midi
Slipping along at a gentle pace, sipping something cool,
admiring some of the most beautiful of France's countryside and looking
forward to enjoying the very best of French regional cooking.
