François Gabart, a man of challenges
François Gabart is, as of 2017, the Fastest Man Sailing Around the Planet. This exceptional sailor has dedicated his talent to racing boats and competing on the world's oceans since he was very young.
"I believe in everyone's share of responsibility to try to do something great on a global level. For us skippers, the only limit to our progress at sea will be global warming. We have to imagine tomorrow's solutions so that our children can look to the future with confidence and desire."
François Gabart

The SVR-Lazartigue trimaran, a ship of the seas with revolutionary lines, which came out of the Mer Concept workshops, is not just a racing boat.
This flying boat, which bears the colors of KRESK 4 OCEANS, will have the mission of crisscrossing the seas to meet the public and raise awareness of environmental issues, and will participate in the "Understanding at sea" program of the endowment fund.
