Excited to have played a part in the design of this new Gitana 18 Ultim. Can’t wait to take it out on the water!
Thanks for your trust Gitana Team!

2002/ A freshly graduated team takes on Yves Parlier’s revolutionary catamaran project. This would be the first opportunity for Guillaume Verdier, Romaric Neyhousser, Hervé Perfornis and Loïc Goepfert (Team Verdier & AWA founder) to work together. From this meeting emerged a lasting friendship and lifelong collaboration.

The work carried out on the planning, the chines, and the elevated, aviation-inspired bow would become one of the foundations for future projects and directly influence the lines of modern trimarans and monohulls: ORMA, IMOCA, Ultim, Ocean Fifty.
On 19 May 2006, the boat set the solo 24-hour distance record, all categories combined, covering 586 miles.

A first adventure… that changed everything.
