About
Jules Bonnier is a 26-year-old skipper from St Malo. In 2016 he made his first Atlantic crossing during the Québec-Saint Malo race; feeling the call of the ocean, he began putting the finishing touches on a project he could undertake solo. The lockdown period served as an opportunity to put together a sailing project that he would launch in 2021, with the Nestenn group of real estate agencies at his side. With a keen awareness of environmental issues, his boat also flies the colours of Entrepreneurs pour la Planet, an association for which he is an ambassador. His Class40 bears the number 153; a high-performance vessel that had its stem upgraded in 2021 in order to position it as a serious competitor alongside some of the newer builds.
