A trimaran to go chasing the singlehanded records, notably around the world, but also to take the 2018 Route du Rhum. Because François Gabart’s program is spread between 2015 and 2019.
At the end of December, the 30 meter long central hull was transferred from Multiplast to CDK. The 37 meter long wide load took less than 2 hours to carry out the fifty kilometer journey between the two yards, with no mishaps. All the elements have now been brought together at the yard, and the final assembly will begin soon, with the launch planned for some time during the summer of 2015.
