HISTORY OF THE FRENCH FISHING BOAT LA PROVENÇALE

Discover the 2023 wooden model of La Provençale, a traditional fishing boat of the French Riviera. With a typical Mediterranean line thanks to its two Latin sails, this boat used to be manufactured with the remains of the wood used for the construction of larger fishing boats.

The bottom of La Provençale hull is flat, which allows you to reach the shore of the numerous beaches and coves of the wonderful region of which it is typical. Used by the poorest fishermen, these boats had serious problems when the weather was bad.
