Oh interesting! I lived nearby as a child and I remember these boats, but I didn't know they had been revived.

In case anyone visits, this is upstream:

If you had asked me how big the HN audience is in l'Isle sur la Sorgue I would not have guessed more than 0 :-) A very special place indeed.

Well covid helped spread people out ;-)

Yes, they have races in l'Isle sur la Sorgues now, and there's always a few of them crossing the town. Much less popular than kayaks and canoe (cause totally impossible to handle), but they're the only ones that can go below the bridges.
