I created this blog to begin documenting our sailing adventures in our Drascombe Scaffie named âMon Nègâ. I named it Mon Nèg because my mother called me that from the time of my birth to the day she died. Mon Nèg is a term of endearment in SW Louisiana French. A language that I spoke before learning English. In Creole/Haitian âMon Nègâ means âMy Man or My Guy.â I wish my Mom was here now to enjoy life. But she isnât here anymore and this is how I remember her. Hey Mom je suis toujours ton ti garçon! I hope youâll follow this blog as we refinish and splash our Scaffie Mon Nèg. The goal is to set off on our pensioners adventure aboard this wonderful small open sailboat.
