For our part, we had the opportunity to sell our boat quickly, and we wanted to be able to do the Route du Rhum. So we needed a shipyard that was available quickly and had experience in building IMOCAs, which are very special boats. Carrington has built some magnificent boats with impeccable finishes, such as the former Hugo Boss and Holcim-PRB. Their expertise in prototype racing boats proved to be the ideal choice<\/em>&#8220;.<\/p>\n<p>The new Imoca is scheduled to arrive at the Groupe Dubreuil Sailing Team yard in Les Sables d&#8217;Olonne in May 2026, and to be launched in August.
