In the technical area of La Grande-Motte (Hérault), the catamaran We Explore was “given” to the Mediterranean this Thursday in the breath of enthusiasm. This catamaran from the Outremer workshops is the new boat for the Route du rhum by Roland Jourdain, designer, skipper and test pilot all at the same time. And also innovative. It is the first time in the history of offshore racing that a boat is mainly designed and manufactured in vegetable fiber, instead of the classic fiberglass, and that it will start on November 6 in Saint- Malo, with some ambitions.
