While in Sausalito over the weekend, we took in two performances of Delphine et Franck, a French couple sailing the world aboard the boat Franck designed and built. They have their two daughters, 11 and 4 along for the adventure. They recently came down the coast (having to motor most of the way) from Vancouver, BC. They'll be performing in the Bay Area for another few weeks (Treasure Island, South Beach Marina, Ensenal Yacht Club, perhaps more). The shows are free, but they accept donations to help finance their trip. One show is Cirque du Soleil style aerial work from the halyards of their boat, using twin cloths. The other show is pure Buster Keaton style boat slapstick, uproariously funny.
They'll be making more stops down the coast, getting to San Diego in about December. They plan to continue on down to Mexico then later the Marquesas and beyond.
I'll post a couple photos when I get to them on another computer.
Has anyone else seen these folks?
