PERON

A native of Finistère, Éric Péron grew up sailing Olympic dinghies before transitioning to offshore racing. From the Figaro circuit to large trimarans, he has forged his path through transatlantic races and round-the-world voyages, culminating in the 2024 completion of the inaugural Arkea Ultim Challenge-Brest, the first solo round-the-world race in an Ultim trimaran. A competitor and entrepreneur, he has brought together a collective of partner companies through French Touch Oceans Club, a unique collaborative racing team in the world of offshore racing. He is now setting his sights on Pointe-à-Pitre for his second Route du Rhum.
