Ailes Marines at the SRH Business Trophy

This weekend,  Ailes Marines  participated in the  Trophée des Entreprises , a sailing regatta organized by the  Société des Régates du Havre  (SRH), the oldest sailing club in continental Europe.

Our crew, made up of Raphael Flint, Matthieu Garin, Briac Hervé, Fabien Iacopinelli and our skipper David Kerloch , performed magnificently by winning 2 of the 8 races contested.

Unfortunately, the lack of training did not allow us to compete with the Le Havre crews, who were more up to date with the maneuvers, but also much more aware of the particularly strong local currents during this equinox weekend.

Under an almost summer sun, good humor was evident, both within the crew and between the different companies.

This weekend was above all a great opportunity to present our company and our projects to local stakeholders, particularly during the crew dinner where there were many requests for our team members .

As a reminder, Ailes Marines is behind the creation of the SiemensGamesa in Le Havre. We are also pre-selected for the 1GW tender off the coast of Normandy.

Thanks to our crew, and see you at the next event!

 

Hello Fabien, you participated this weekend in the SRH Business Trophy. What was your experience of the regatta before this event?

The regatta for me was when I was 10 years old at the CVPX the Saint-Quay-Portrieux sailing circle in the Côtes d'Armor, before the construction of the deep water port...

What did you like the most?

In this type of competition, what matters to me is team spirit. I observed my teammates a lot and realized that a lot of qualities were needed for this sport, which can be found in business. The group spirit, in the difficulties and in the 2 round victories, that's what I appreciated the most.

What struck you the most?

I was pleasantly surprised by the welcome received by the AILES MARINES / IBERDROLA team which already has a good reputation locally. We have worked to maintain an image of the well-educated, friendly and proud people of AILES MARINES / IBERDROLA.

One last word ?

I would like to thank the crew for their exceptional state of mind. I hope to repeat this type of operation in the future and to have the pleasure of representing the company once again.
