‘Turquoise’ is a Marquise 56, and thus possesses a second, surprising dinghy. A hydro-microlight... This little machine, weighing 220 kg, can carry two people and will fly for three hours. Launching is carried out using the spinnaker halyard, and the 20m² wing is easily fitted against the cat, or on the edge of the beach if the sea is rough. Once in the air, it’s pure pleasure. The machine is perfect for spotting whale sharks, Manta rays, turtles and other species, and allows effective spotting of the seabed... We must mention that Turquoise cruises in the Seychelles, and offers diving charter in this genuine little paradise.
