The Robert/ Martinique Sculling Weekend
Martinique sculling The practice of sculling is added to the traditional sailing race of the Martinique skiff. There is only one man left with his paddle (head scull) propelling and directional and two teammates in the yole BB. The race is very physical and the technique difficult to master. To advance the skimmers (scuppers) put the paddle in the stern board and the side gears. This test takes place on the baby yoles with the single propulsion of the scull.
The sculling regatta is one of the best ways to know your boat and perfect your technique. It is also an opportunity to experience strong sports emotions.
It is time for us to rediscover the virtues of sculling. It is an environmentally friendly and effective means of propulsion. The scull, in addition to its extremely favorable carbon footprint, triggers impulses of sympathy and offers a means of propulsion and maneuver as silent as effective.
This event is a great opportunity to mark the diversity of yovers. These can turn into scullers on the BB yoles really suitable for this practice. With the sculling races we open a new page of the practice of the Martinique yole.
The BB yoles are traditional boats. These yoles are used regularly for sailing and especially by young people for their learning. The construction of a BB yole complies with the specifications defined by the federation of yoles.
