From June 9th to 13th of 2025, the 3rd United Nations Ocean Conference (UNOC) took place in Nice. The goal? To accelerate action to better protect the oceans and encourage more responsible management of these environments. Among the projects presented, the boat We Explore stood out.<\/b><\/p>\n\u00a0We Explore, more than just a boat…<\/b><\/h2>\n
Made from 50% flax fibre, We Explore is a unique boat. It was imagined by yachtsman Roland Jourdain and his team to show that innovation and respect for the environment can co-exist in the same project.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n By taking part in the UNOC, We Explore had a clear role to play: to raise awareness among sea lovers, professionals and enthusiasts alike. It has been able to get people thinking about their relationship with the sea and more ecological lifestyles. <\/span>“With We Explore, we want to show that concrete solutions already exist to meet the major challenges facing the oceans. This catamaran is a symbol of cooperation, resilience and innovation in the service of life.\u201d<\/span><\/i> – Sophie Jourdain Vercelletto, co-founder of the Explore public interest fund.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n Adrena, the project’s technical partner, is playing an important role by supplying the navigation software on board We Explore. Thanks to Adrena Pro, weather data, currents, optimised routes and even sensitive areas can be accessed in real time, encouraging reasoned, high-performance navigation. And the \u2018Hazard Button\u2019 feature allows you to learn more about marine mammals and avoid key habitats and migratory flows.<\/span><\/p>\nAdrena: technology for more sustainable navigation<\/b><\/h2>\n
