CMA-CGM to the Rescue of Kito de Pavant
On Tuesday morning (December 06, 2016), the navigator Kito de Pavant suffered a serious damage following a collision with an unidentified floating object while sailing in the North of the Crozet Islands.
The crew CMA CGM Marion Dufresne then immediately modified its route in order to come to rescue the skipper as soon as possible. The ship was then the boat closest to the sailboat in distress, and will be on site in about ten hours of sailing.
Since 1995, CMA CGM has been the owner of the Marion Dufresne, a supply vessel for the French Southern lands and the largest French ocean vessel owned by the TAAF (French Southern and Antarctic Territories).
