Designed by Guillaume Verdier, APIVIA is an IMOCA with some striking architectural options and above all she is the first boat built entirely on CDK Technologies’ Lorient site, thanks in particular to the installation of a very large latest-generation oven.
Her skipper Charlie Dalin is being supported in this project by François Gabart’s MerConcept team.
Apivia launched in August 2019 has only 3000 miles in her foils at the start of the Transat jacques Vabre, she signs a victory, then finishes second in the Arctic Vendée les Sables d'Olonne.
