The *Côtre de Carantec* is an iconic French sailing vessel with a rich maritime history.
• Traditional Cutter: It is a gaff-rigged wooden cutter, distinguished by its broad hull and deep keel.
• Carantec Boatbuilding: The town of Carantec (located in the Bay of Morlaix, Brittany) is historically renowned for its excellent shipyards, such as the famous Sibiril family yard.
• Dual Purpose: Originally built for fishing (particularly for lobster and oysters), these boats became popular in recreational sailing and regattas early in the 20th century due to their speed and stability. This piece has an attribution mark,
