This duo was on the winner’s podium every day of the four-day race, coming in second place on Thursday and Sunday, and third on Saturday, plus winning the Allianz Saint-Barth Assurances Prize on Friday, after winning the first race of the day and finishing third in the second race, which was won by Charles and Maxime Hainneville (Hotel I Franck Cammas, and his teammate Matthieu Vandame (Hotel Guanahani 2). & Villas Associations). Happy with his win in the Cata Cup, Franck Cammas, skipper of the Groupama maxi tri-marans, explains: “This year I sailed a lot on Nacra 17, which is boat that is similar to the Formula 18.” And his has kudos for Matthieu Vandame : “In addition, my teammate is very good on this kind of boat. We were very steady and that helped ensure our victory. We did well with the wind behind us and didn’t do anything stupid… we didn’t break anything or capsize.” Other racers were not as lucky. In fact the weather conditions were challenging over the weekend with strong swells coming toward Saint Barth, which complicated the sailing. And caused the spinnaker on the boat (Allianz Saint-Barth Assurances 2) of the same-name Puerto Weekly 288_Mise en page 1 25/11/13 20:07 Page3 Weekly 288_Mise en page 1 25/11/13 20:07 Page4 4 Ricans, Enrique Figueroas, known as “Kiké” and “Kéki.” Last year’s winners were forced to quit the last race on Sunday, putting them in 21st place in the overall standing. On Thursday, November 21, the 55 boats participating in the Cata Cup set out on calm seas with 15 knots of wind. The duo of Darren Bundock and Jeroen Van Leeuwen, among the favorites in the race, won the first day’s race and the Design Affairs Prize. On Saturday, the RE/MAX Prize went to the Boulogne brothers, also among the serious contenders and F18 world champs in 2004. And in 2008, Emmanuel Boulogne, sailing with Tanguy Kervyn, won the first edition of the Cata Cup. On Saturday, the Saint Barth Multihull Association, which organizes the event, the Centre Nautique de Saint Barthélemy (CNSB), and race director Didier Flamme, added a first race under the guise of a St Barth Weekly n°288 warm-up, sailing between the bay of Saint Jean Frégate, Bonhomme, and Pointe Milou. This race was won by Bundock and Van Leeuwen, beating the Boulogne brothers, who then went on to win the traditional around-the-island race, setting sail from Pointe Milou toward the east of the island, crossing the finish line ahead of Franck Cammas and Matthieu Vandame. With 15 knots, gentle waves, the conditions were well adapted for the F18s, allowing high speeds. The next day, Bundock and Van Leeuwen, a heavier team, made the best of the weather conditions, winning the Marché U Prize. The stronger waves and winds over 17 knots at times caused various problems, with only 44 of the original 55 boats on the starting line for the second race. With two wins this year, Australian Darren Bundock, an America’s Cup champion and his teammate Jeroen Van Leeuwen did not do as well in this race, finishing in 33rd place.

French administrative court rejected Saint Barth’s most recently adopted urban planning map on October 23, putting the Territorial Council back at square one. The court’s decision was made since various owners had contested land that had been classified in green zones, and the court felt that the public was presented with a map that was not precise enough as well as being impossible to read, with a lack of information about the decisions made, and the creation of a “red zone” or natural risk area that did not seem justified as no study had been made in this determination. The island’s elected officials have to once again try to create a map that is legal and fair by reexamining the procedures called for in the urbanism code. And A then, once again, open the map up for public consultation. And to make sure to make all modifications requested by the prefecture in its role of legal control. “But the process should move quickly, says Karine Miot-Richard, vice president of the Collectivity and president of the urban planning commission. According to her, a new map could see the light of day, “in less than a year, before the end of 2014.” The items unapproved as “legal technicalities,” should be “easy to remedy,” considers Miot-Richard. The other items (most of the zoning and regulations) should be okay. “The lion’s share of the work has already been completed,” she says. “It will not take four years to make the necessary corrections.” In the meantime, what is the current situation? In the absence of a zoning map, what are the rules? “French national urbanism regulations (RNU) now apply,” indicates Miot-Richard. Yes, but what about the zones that are open or closed to building as noted on the zoning map? If tomorrow, the owner of a piece of land decides to build in what turns out to be a green zone? “We can always suspend giving a ruling on a request for a building permit,” indicates the vice president of the Collectivity. “Even if it takes two years to complete the new map,” she notes, “It is not because the zoning map was rejected that we are going to authorize five-story buildings starting tomorrow.” Miot-Richard adds: “The cancellation does not void the permits given out under the aegis of the map.” A member of the majority party, MiotRichard hopes that this decision by the administrative court does not make too many waves. The reclassification of land open to building (or not) remains to be seen as the Territorial Council is once again faced with the task of creating a new zoning map.

He came as a 12-year old boy, first on vacation from school in Guadeloupe, where his father worked for Air France. The simple, undeveloped island that Lefort discovered back in the 70s is reflected in his paintings, which will be seen in a show at Les Artisans gallery in Gustavia, B beginning Friday, November 29. “I always knew I wanted to be an artist,” says Lefort, who lived on a catamaran for several years, reinforcing his love for the sea, one of the recurring leitmotifs in his art. “I didn’t know if I’d work in advertising, graphics, or even comic books,” he jokes. “I did a lot of sign painting and t-shirts to make a living.” But for more than the past decade, Lefort has been able to dedicate himself entirely to his career as a painter, working primarily in oils, which seem best suited to his textures and his chosen color palette. “You can use oils in many different ways and the result is pleasing,” he says. “I can express myself best with oils.” The paintings at Les Artisans express Lefort’s interest in the old Saint Barth, its boats and its landscapes. “I like to think of myself as a witness of the old days,” he says, “depicting the past with the old wooden cottages that are quickly dis- appearing and older wooden boats.” His color palette also has a dusty, earthy range for his landscapes, while his paintings of boats and the sea lean toward reds and blues. “I like to juxtapose colors as in nature or in reflections on the water,” Lefort says. “The message I really want to communicate is what Saint Barth really means to me, an old vision of the island.” Jean-Yves Lefort at Les Artisans, Gustavia Opening reception, Friday, November 29, 6pm By Ellen Lampert-Gréaux Weekly 288_Mise en page 1 25/11/13 20:07 Page23 Weekly 288_Mise en page 1 25/11/13 20:07 Page24 24 St Barth Weekly n°288 RAIMUNDO FIGUEROA ART, TEXT, AND FIRE POEMS Saint-Barth has organized AT SPACE ST-BARTH Art an exhibit, “Art, Text and Fire Poems,” through December GALLERY 15, with work by Jean-Charles Space SBH, an art gallery in the Carré d’Or in Gustavia, has works by Raimundo Figueroa through the month of November.

Montgomery, a Scottish artist based in London, was nourished by street art, and writes textes in neon letters or on wood, and doesn’t want his work limited just to galleries. The work of the other two artists is in the same vein, with an accent on words. Blair Chivers uses engraved mirrors to reflect your image juxtaposed with a “positive thought” written in letters. And in the work of Jean-Charles de Castelbajac where the text is predominant. “One often wonders how to approach a work of contemporary art. The pieces in this exhibit have in common the possibility of a first literary reading,” explains Combres. Following the exhibit, the works by Montgomery will head to Florida for Art Basel Miami, December 5-8. As his letters also have a numerical value as well.

With a whiff of nostalgia, Rémy Laurent Kraft continues his series of books that recall the past in Saint Barth. His newest effort is titled At The Beach. The drawings include cute little blondes and brunettes dressed in the styles of days of yore, from rolled up overalls for the boys to dresses with aprons for the girls, and everyone wearing a straw hat woven from dried palm fronds.

Seven of them to be exact, in keeping with the days of the week: Colombier, Fla- mands, Lorient, Saint Jean, Saline, Gouverneur, and Shell Beach. At the end of the book is a small glossary to introduce sugarbirds, pelicans, and other island symbols. This book follows the first in the series, At Home, where these characters share their daily life day-by-day over the course of a week in the peaceful and bucolic past. Kraft has also written 7 Days in SaintBarth, which had a different publisher. With this collection of books, which are in both French and English, Kraft has found a way for today’s visitors to take home a souvenir of the old days in Saint Barthélemy.
