Our spacious self-drive Connoisseur French canal barges from LeBoat are 46 feet with four cabins; fill a boat yourself, or we'll do our best to find additional crewmates to make a boat. Our seven-night voyage costs $1,750 per person, sharing, and includes a night in Paris, cocktail party, and welcome dinner, starter provisions, a train excursion through the countryside, and a tour of the Caves de Bailly winery. Our guest host will be Sally Helme, publisher of Cruising World, Sailing World, and Power Cruising magazines. Also along to care for your every need will be Peter and Carol King, our charter organizers extraordinaire. See www.sailingcharters.com for information on an optional add-on trip (June 6-10) to Beaune, General Eisenhower's war room in Reims, and extraordinary restaurants and vineyards of the region, including a special dinner in Paris. For more on cruising France by barge, check out "France's Canal Du Midi" by Doris Colgate, in the January/February 2007 issue of Power Cruising.
