French boat

Was down at Brevig harbour the other day - the day the sun came out. For a bit that is. Came across these fellow-me-lads mucking about with great hulk of a boat thing that has been seemingly and slowly eroding away for a while.
Turns out its a French built boat from Brittany that Mr Man [whoever his name is; He did tell me but I'm old and I forgot] is making good again - taking off the rusting superstructure, replacing the keel [I think] and putting up a mast with a gaff rig. Anyway, really nice people and it will be interesting to see the thing afloat - eventually.Ragamuffin??
