Jean-Pierre Dick: sailor of the year 2011

 

Jean-Pierre once again gains recognition from his peers. On Monday, 5th December, at the Soirée des Champions ceremony, an annual event that rewards French sailors who have contributed to competitive sailing, Jean-Pierre Dick was named Sailor of the Year 2011 by a 20-member jury chaired by Isabelle Autissier, which included eminent personalities of the sailing community, journalists and elected members of the French Sailing Federation (Fédération Française de Voile)

This distinction caps an exceptional year for Jean-Pierre, with two major victories aboard Virbac-Paprec 3: the Barcelona World Race (with Loïck Peyron) and the Transat Jacques Vabre (with Jérémie Beyou).

In 2012, he will undertake a new challenge: the Vendée Globe, a solo round-the-world race with no stops, which is his absolute goal and dream.

The ABC arbitrage group is prouder than ever to be one of his loyal supporters and a partner of this exceptional sailor, as well as backing a team of impassioned people dedicated to a unique project.
