What is the boat you have designed and you are the most fier??
There's no boat in particular. What I'm most proud of is the VPLP agency. Every boat is tied to a human story.
Of course, there is still Pierre 1st, Florence Arthaud's trimaran. At the age of 17, Florence was starting her first year of medical school and I had decided to go to Southampton to learn the profession of naval architect. I said, "That's great, one day I'll draw your boat for you." And it finally happened. She was very close to my heart.
Which boat would you have liked dessiner??
In maritime transport, transport ships, there are a lot of projects, such as Neoline or TOWT, which offer means of transport by sail. All projects with a human or ecological dimension, whether it be in yachting or racing, or in transport, interest me a lot. I'm very happy that they exist even if we don't work on them.
With Vincent we've had a lot of success. Our professional life has been extremely rich and has given us a lot back. I'm not someone who envies others. Of course we would have liked to work on projects like that, but they exist in the end and that's what counts.
What is the project you would have liked travailler? to work on?
We're in a transmission phase at the agency . It's a little drive-thru time. I think our successors are happy, our customers are happy. There won't be an overnight blackout.
It's a long tile and there will always be projects that I will continue to add value to. Most likely on all the aspects I have just mentioned. The issue of sustainable development is something I think about a lot. I read quite a lot about it, I can contribute things, but always on request. These are subjects that are dear to my heart.
