THE DOCK-BR- shipyard, based in Lanvéoc since 2019, is expanding the capacity of Brest harbor for large multihulls. The arrival of the IDEC trimaran in September 2025 represents a significant technical operation. This stopover underlines the site's ambitions in terms of ocean racing and the local nautical sector.
Capacity adapted to large units

The docking of the IDEC trimaran at THE DOCK-BR facilities shows that the shipyard is now capable of handling vessels of unprecedented dimensions. Even when moored ashore, a trimaran of this size requires controlled logistics, reinforced mooring areas and high-capacity lifting equipment. This infrastructure makes it possible to envisage heavy maintenance operations not only for maxi-trimarans, but also for technical vessels and yachts.
A desire to structure an ocean racing sector on the Crozon peninsula

Beyond the technical aspects, THE DOCK-BR- project is based on a territorial ambition. Its founder, Arnaud Godart-Philippe, a former Figaro racer and company director, is seeking to establish a genuine racing stable in this part of Finistère. Hosting major projects such as Alexia Barrier's and the Jules Verne Trophy is part of a medium-term strategy, in which Brest harbor could become a preparation base for international ocean campaigns.
Combining skills to serve the needs of superyachts

While ocean racing provides a media and technical showcase, the shipyard is also targeting the superyacht market. The Lanvéoc location, which complements the structures in Brest, enables us to meet growing demand for yacht and specialized unit maintenance. The challenge for THE DOCK-BR- is to pool technical skills between racing, yachting and professional vessels, while enhancing the attractiveness of the harbor.
A dynamic local maritime business

The site is part of a local economic fabric in which the sea is a lever for development. The creation of a dry port, plans to extend the facilities and partnerships with the public sector reinforce the company's local roots. By combining technical expertise, sporting ambition and a commitment to local development, THE DOCK-BR- is charting a singular course in the Breton shipbuilding landscape.
IDEC: a temporary high-level ambassador
The grounding of the IDEC trimaran is more than just a technical stopover. It is also a symbol. This ship, emblematic of ocean-racing records, is a showcase for the shipyard's expertise. The maintenance operation, carried out as part of the preparations for the Jules Verne Trophy with The Famous Project - CIC, exposes the shipyard to the media and confirms its technical legitimacy at the highest level of world yachting.
