Commissioned by the Thales group, Multiplast has manufactured dozens of civil and military radomes, radars and sonars since 2010. Franck Martin, the shipyard's naval architect, explains how.

Eight Imocas from the Multiplast shipyard are set to line up line up at the start of the Vendée Globe on November 10th but already some teams are already looking well beyond this race to the next cycle, indeed three new boats - including one for DMG Mori - have already been ordered from the Vannes yard. And so this seems like an opportunity to take stock of upcoming builds as well as the dynamism within the Imoca class.
