The boat
New generation navigation system
The navigation system aboard the Figaro Bénéteau 2 was designed by and for single-handed sailors, born from the collaboration between naval architect Marc Lombard and all the "Figarists". "The solo racers conceived it to their image, the architect dreamed it, and the shipyard built it respecting the spirit of its industrial field,“ affirms the constructor. The Figaro Bénéteau 2 is in fact larger and more powerful than its predecessor, integrating numerous new developments in terms of construction, innovation and design. Lufthansa will count on the support of its boat sponsors, Murphy & Nye, Breitling, Sixt, Swiss and Toshiba, to help with this new challenge.
