Since childhood, Trinitain Corentin Horeau, a graduate of La Marine Marchande, has had a passion for the sea, and Quiberon Bay is his favorite playground. He has cut his teeth on all types of support craft, both crewed and solo. Known for his steely resolve and unfailing fighting spirit, Corentin is a feared competitor on the pontoons.
Familiar with the Figaro circuit and winner of the 2023 Solitaire, he first joined the IMOCA Class as Benjamin Dutreux's co-skipper for the 2023 Transat Jacques Vabre.
In 2025, he announced that he would be co-skipper of Yoann Richomme on Paprec Arkéa for double-handed and crewed races.
