Furthermore, when you are in touch with an architect from Mutiplast, you can build a boat without using the "classic scheme".

After investing her own money to buy the two "Groupama" floats, Anne Caseneuve asked Christophe Houdet and Jacques Mitchell - the latter personally ? to build and assemble a " 50 foot" for her.

Since the start of the construction, Anne Caseneuve 's project changed with the support of a sport events agency called " l'Esprit d'Equipe" and with our Major Sponsor?s reliability : Yachting-casino.com.

Yachting-casino knew how to support an ambitious and exciting project. That was the meticulous work because it was unique. This work lasted for a long time and needed a lot of patience : Anne had this project in mind since three years. Nowadays this carbon and kevlar trimaran is well done and is called ? ? Yachting-casino.com ?. It is very light, very nervous : Now Anne can hope to fight the biggest ones without fears.

This trimaran has nothing to do with the old langevin plan on which Anne ran the 1998's " Route du Rhum" race.

"Now, I ' ve got a real boat ", she says, " the one I dreamt about".

Nowadays, the 19 metres alu mast will be used to reach the record of the North Atlantic race. On the contrary, a 24 metres mast will be used for the next "Route du Rhum" and the other adventures Anne will have.
