"Cadiou has stepped aboard the association The Elemen'Terre Project "

Maison Cadiou is supporting the association The Elemen'Terre Project, driven by Marie Tabarly. Its aim is to raise awareness amongst the general public about our time’s biggest environmental and societal challenges. This long-standing project has kept the Captain and her crew busy for 2 years, culminating in the Pen Duick VI sailing round the world with no modern equipment during the OCEAN GLOBE RACE.

What is "The Elemen'Terre Project” ?

The Elemen'Terre Project is an association founded in 2017, driven by Marie Tabarly, housed in the roaming flagship Pen-Duick VI.

The sailing boat was designed for Eric Tabarly in 1973 for the Whitbread Race (the first round-the-world race), so has been in service for exactly 50 years.

This legendary race is soon to be relaunched under the name OCEAN GLOBE RACE (0°G°R°), departing on 10 September 2023 in the same conditions as its very first edition: no GPS, no electronics, no satellite link - just a sextant and paper maps.

Having the Pen-Duick VI take part in the Ocean Globe Race will allow "The Elemen'Terre Project” association to circulate its messages and actions around the world.

" Spotlight on Marie Tabarly "

Part-buccaneer at the helm of the Pen-Duick VI, championing environmental causes, part-Amazon when acting as the horse-whisperer, the young 39 year-old woman is resolutely determined both on land and out at sea.

As a sailor, artist and accomplished sportswoman who takes pleasure in many nature-based activities, her lifestyle has led her to develop a fervent environmental conscience and love for her natural surroundings.

Her free and modern mind has also been cradled by tradition and family history since her early childhood.

"Heritage: what world have we inherited, what planet are we to leave behind?"

The Elemen'Terre project during the race: Heritage

Elemen'Terre is a floating think tank housed on the Pen-Duick VI, committed to bringing us back to a simple and elementary way of thinking and acting. Its leitmotiv: what world have we inherited, what planet are we to leave behind?

The Elemen'Terre project outside the race: Legacy

The purpose of Elemen'Terre Legacy is to forge stronger links between local companies and youths, by co-creating educational programmes revolving around socio-ecological challenges: biodiversity, coastline preservation, low-tech economic activities. The programme’s pilot phase was launched in September 2022 with a project based in La Providence, a secondary school in Saint-Malo, focusing on the design of "battery-charging pedal mechanisms".
