Pending a major trading partner, several partners have already expressed. They are webmasters, manufacturers, mechanics, or just passionate people in this project but also by the sea and boats, and they want to bring their stone to the edifice.

Thanks to you all, more likely, Yes We Can !

Webdesign, Vonne Blanchet

No need for lengthy speech by visiting this site, you can judge the quality of work provided by Vonne for the design, creation and implementation of your websites, logos, brochures, etc.. A working professional at very studied. Vonne sailing course and knows the sea, she has built a solid reputation in the construction of websites dedicated to adventure, such as Olivier Pitras (69nord.com), the Arctic Expedition 'Under the Pole (underthepole.com) or agency that specializes in photo safaris in Africa Matatatours (matatatours.com). Last but not Least, Vonne was the partner of the first time on the project, incidentally, there fifteen years, we had recovered both the Red Sea, aboard the Orca, 25 feet without an engine!

Globe Marine Service, Patrice Consoli

The trimaran is a boat to sail and yet the engine is necessary, the resolution of the Route du Rhum also makes the obligatory presence of an inboard engine. It is especially useful in maneuvers in port, but also with his generator to recharge the batteries, even if solar panels will try to compensate for consumption.
Marin confirmed and diesel with exception Patrice will support the management of embedded systems, ranging from the preparation of the engine and its saildrive, alternators, electrical circuits, etc. Globe Marine Service thus provides expertise on one of the key points of the preparation.

LED Lighting, Mantagua

At sea, the biggest consumers of electricity are the pilot, electronics and lighting. Mantagua Breton is a manufacturer of LED lighting. LEDs provide significant savings in electricity as their power consumption can be up to five times lower than conventional bulbs. In addition, their lifetime is greater. On a boat race, namely Cotonelle, this concerns the headlamps, headlamp bridge, and of course the interior lighting. By consuming less energy, it takes less to produce the batteries are less powerful and their weight is decreased, we obtain the final weight gain substantial, and a ship more powerful! !

Bernard and his Seaon

Bernard is obviously a passionate, it sails each summer along the coast of Britain on board his fireball yellow, Seaon 96 CRB while carbon with which he has also explored the coasts of Sweden (indeed, it returns this year)! To start, Bernard offers the team a semi rigid with a 115 hp engine, all you need to follow the trimaran at least until the buoy Cape Freels, and even beyond. Meanwhile, Bernard provides a housing project in the immediate vicinity of Saint-Malo, the week before the start of October 22 to 31. The ideal place to relax and attack the race in the best possible conditions.

Gérard and his Corsair 27 ‘Caïman’

Before sailing aboard Cayman, the Corsair 27, Gérard was a Typhoon, then a Freely 8m. Each time it is fine, that is to say it does not rain too, it is not too cold, and there is not much wind (ie say often enough in La Rochelle), then we take the path of Pertuis La Rochelle for some devilish edge to over 15 knots, so as not to lose the sensation of speed and fully understand the settings that make the difference. Once we have the boat, Gérard will be there to prepare the boat and then sailing course.

Pierre Poilloux, photographer

His talent is such that he could be a professional photographer. Besides being a great traveler (he spends two months a year in Indonesia, with family), Pierre has a real know-how to capture moments of life. Longtime friend, so it's natural that I appealed to him to make pictures of the boat, whether images under sail, or life on board. Pierre is also a volunteer in an association which supports, among other schools in Cambodia (http://www.taiderpourlase.com/).

Loïc Briand : routing quality

The talent does not expect the number of years, definitely. Twenty-one years, Jimmy is passionate about everything related to the sea, especially sailing, this is what took him to the training of cadet first class of the Merchant Marine in Le Havre. Student navigation, meteorology and all matters relating to the ship, he invested in his passion for one day master the art of perfect navigation. Crewmember Gilles Lamiré (skipper of the 60 feet Orma Madinina on Rhum in 2006), he sailed again this year with the team of Cancale weapon that former Elf-Aquitaine 3, Gitana 9 and more recently Laiterie de Saint Malo. "In doing the routing, I am aware of the reality of the solitary and difficult test that is transatlantic, I try to relieve Gilles so that its sole concern is to settle the ship."
Loïc me when I proposed route for the Route du Rhum - La Banque Postale, I immediately accepted. I know from experience that the pace alone is enough support to need outside eyes and mind rested in order to deal with the weather. Parallel to the analysis of Loïc, I hope to use the routing of the navigation software 'Adrena'.
