The shipyard and the talented young champion met during the Grand Pavois de La Rochelle, Manon Pianazza is a young high-performance sportswoman specialised in the windsurfing environment. Originally from the La Rochelle region, aged only 18, she already shows an impressive record at an international level. Manon embarked on the bandwagon of the new Olympic discipline, the IQFOIL, in 2019, and she has already won major prises in this discipline (young IQFOIL world champion in 2021). Last week, during the Youth Sailing World Championships in the Sultanate of Oman, Manon achieved a feat during the Techno 293 (dagger board windsurf championship): with 13 races, and no less than 13 wins! and one more world title on her crown. With the iQFOIL, she’s aiming for the Paris 2024 Olympics. The AMEL shipyards are happy to support this local young sportswoman with her career.
