Launch of the 76.6 m Explorer m/v YERSIN in Concarneau harbor

Piriou Shipyards comes to the launching of the "Navire de voyages" m/v ASE YERSIN in the harbor of Concarneau.

This ship with a length of 76,60 meters LOA, built in Concarneau, is a first and a real challenge for the French shipbuilder.

Created by Pierre Jacques Kubis Naval Designs in collaboration with the owner and the in-house Engineering team, the motor vessel has been designed for cruising in extreme conditions (-20°C/+50°C), with an ice-classed steel hull.

A singular vessel for versatile offshore sea travels, all seas, all weather in respectful of the environment, "YERSIN" combines a complex technical platform with a high level of comfort and security.

In building from November 2012, her delivery and official presentation are scheduled for may 2015.
