LAUNCH OF IMOCA FORTINET – BEST WESTERN

The IMOCA Fortinet Best Western has come to the end of her refit, and was relaunched yesterday after four months of work, checks and optimizations.

The launch is always a special moment, with many delicate maneuvers: installing the foils, lifting the boat, fitting the keel, launching and masting. Fortunately, everything went off without a hitch thanks to my crack team. What’s more, the sun was out in full force!

Today marks the start of the sporting season, and it’s like back-to-school time… We can’t wait to get this boat out on the water and stretch her foils! Just a little more patience, as the first sail should take place in a week’s time, giving the team time to refit the boat.
