They have been very successful in their native Breton waters and previously raced at the TP52 World Championships in Palma, but the Paprec team, which contains a proportion of amateur sailors who have sailed for many years with the owners, are ready for a new challenge.
Sailmaker Stephan Neve skippers the boat which was launched in 2007 as Artemis, and which has been recently updated through last winter. Twins Hugues and Sebastien Destremau steer and call tactics respectively. Paprec have a long history in sailing, competing in the final Admiral’s Cup in 2003 winning the Commodore’s Cup for France in 2006 and also supporting IMOCA Open 60 skipper Jean-Pierre Dick.
