Can only see radar on one boat.
Which makes us think that perhaps they are on the way to a boat show (La Ciotat boat show is coming up) or they are going to a dealer to be fitted out for customers...perhaps only one is ready for delivery to the customer (I didn’t see any name on the two fifty five footers

In Bouba's first and third photos, there are two bow mooring lines visible.
One goes directly from the cleat on the gunwhale to the dock, and the other line is led through a fairlead first - I wonder why?
Surely this just effectively makes it an 'unfairlead'?

They were only temporarily tied up on a dead calm day while they waited for the 72 to refuel and then they were gone
