THONIER

A classical tunny fishing boat that first appeared from the ports of La Rochelle and Sables d'Olonne on the Bay of Biscay. Ini 1883, after a disasterous year of storms and losses of ships at sea, Pierre Baron transformed the design of tunny fishing boats into the model's shape. Even today, some of these ships still grace the French coastal waters.
