International photographer Thierry Martinez was at the launch of the new open 60' 'DCNS' for French Skipper Marc Thiercelin, which took place in Vannes.

'DCNS' has been made in the same mould as 'GENERALI' ( Yann Elies) and 'BRIT AIR' (Armel Le Cleac'h) and has a similar deck to that of 'HUGO BOSS' (Alex Thomson-GBR).

It will be fourth solo round the world race for Marc Thiercelin.
