Le Conquet (Brittany)
July 30, 1919.
The lifeboat Conquet Lieutenant Peter Geruzez is out, July 26, around 7:00 am, the port of Le Conquet to bring relief to the fishing vessel lobster boat from England, Saint Pol Roux , 1708 Camaret, foggy weather that had run aground on the northern tip of the island Beuniguet. On arrival the lifeboat to the scene, the operator found that the crew of the lobster was safe in the boat's edge. The Saint Pol Roux was well on one side and capsized, lowering the sea again, he had only request the assistance of the navy did not fail. The day is indeed a tug and a bugalet of the port of Brest were able to save the building, which was towed to Conquet, where, after a repair 24 hours He returned to sea and is made only to Camaret.

Note: is quite by chance I discovered this brief relationship that we learned of the existence, in 1919, a lobster named after our poet. I knew there had been one in 1959, inaugurated by Divine, which was followed by a tuna, also beautifully appointed in the 1970s, Saint-Pol-Roux, of course, was President of Regatta Camaret, and shortly before his death, honorary president of the Central Rescue of Shipwrecked, but I knew that just 14 years (and perhaps even less) after installation Camarétois, they gave her a beautiful name for a poet to a boat fishing. An anecdotal probably nothing ... yet nothing that indicates a successful integration: that of Castellan strange accent in Provence to put in Parisian society gendemers simple and rough.
