MSc student, Ecole Navale
Since his childhood in Guadeloupe (FWI) where he sailed on traditional dinguy boat of Guadeloupe and where he attended to the arrivals of the Route du Rhum, he has a strong desire to work in naval conception. The 34th edition of the America’s Cup marked the beginning of his interest on hydrofoil. To understand how it works he made a scale model of the America’s Cup boat AC 72 and he used it to do an analytical calculation of the minimum take-off speed according to various rake incidences. This experimental comparison includes a preliminary research work on rake angle of “L-shaped” hydrofoil impact on the longitudinal stability. In 2018, he had the opportunity to work as composite technician in Core Builder Composite in New-Zealand. He worked on the F50 boat of the SailGP sailing league. He currently make an MSc in Fluid and Energetics Systems specialise in Naval Environment in the French Naval Academy in Brest, and he make some research works on the development of a VPP to confirm and improve the trend adjustment of the French Nacra 17 sailing team.
