DATE OF BIRTH: 30 October 1993
HOMEPORT: Port-La-Forêt
BOAT: Skipper Macif 2022
After ten years of competing in high-level sport catamaran regattas, dreaming of the Olympics in the Tornado class, Lois Berrehar's hopes were dashed when the support was withdrawn by the International Sailing Federation. Lois then changed course. He had a strong interest in offshore racing, so it was natural for him to move in that direction. His dynamism, rigor, and enthusiasm caught the eye of Thomas Coville, who welcomed him into the Sodebo team. While Lois is certainly learning from the best, accumulating sea miles, he quickly shows a preference for solo sailing. He understands that to reach the elite level, there is no better school than that of the Figaro Beneteau.
Lois is well-acquainted with the Figaro circuit, having started his career with Team Bretagne CMB. He was selected as Skipper Macif 2022, racing alongside Erwan Le Draoulec for a year. "I wanted this position in the Skipper Macif program. It's a great honor to represent Macif, which, for me, has the best Figaro program and is an iconic sponsor in sailing."
For his second season, he will be racing alongside Charlotte Yven, Skipper Macif 2023, who has recently joined the program, and they will compete together in all double races of the season.
