      Apprendre au plus grand nombre un savoir menacé de se perdre en le fixant par l'image : ce fut, il y a deux siècles, le pari des Encyclopédistes. Aujourd'hui, la photographie permet d'aller plus loin dans l'indispensable transfert des connaissances. Mais il faut que l'objectif soit vraiment objectif et que la qualité de la reproduction soit à la hauteur de cette ambition pour que l'attrait esthétique devienne en même temps une pédagogie. Naviguer pour le plaisir, pour la gloire ou la découverte, prendre la mer pour la fortune, pour combattre ou se nourrir. De radeau en pirogue et de drakkar en caravelle, de grand voilier en paquebot et de cuirassé en yacht, l'histoire continue de s'écrire au fil des fleuves, au rythme de la houle, dans le sillage des pétroliers et dans les vagues d'étraves de ceux qui continuent de labourer la mer.
