The second example of the Garcia Explocat 52, the ultimate aluminum exploration catamaran by Garcia Yachts, was launched on Thursday 20th May in Cherbourg-en-Cotentin. In its white livery, very noticeable for an aluminium catamaran and due to the application of a vinyl film using the so-called “wrapping” technique, this unit was first of all transported with great care from the Garcia Yachts shipyard to the Ports of Normandy facilities. From there, the Explocat 52 was placed under the 300T travelift, which allowed her actual launching. Several hours of finishing touches are still needed before this unit can be sailed for the first time. See pictures gallery below.
