Polly enjoyed summers as a child dinghy sailing near
Narbonne in the South of France. As she grew up she wanted more challenging sailing, so
her father bought a catamaran. This catamaran has now been lent to the local sailing club,
restored and named 'Le Polly'. Here is a photo of 'Le Polly' being launched for the first
time in August 2010. Polly is lying in a hospital bed, but, at least 'Le Polly' will be
speeding across the lake in the South of France most weekends of the summer. 
The 'Tall ship' Polly crewed on one winter,
taking 21 young trainees across the Atlantic
and one of the cartoons of their exploits which she drew in her diary
