The boat was filled up with diesel and left harbour at 12:00. She motored for two hours into a south-westerly wind on a quiet sea but then the sails were set when the course turned more southerly. Weeki Wachee arrived at Le Havre at 18:00.

After dinner the crew walked along the promenade amongst crowds gathering for a firework display to celebrate 14 July. The crew returned to the boat and enjoyed a good view when the the display started at 23:00. Norbert made a movie of the show.
