 Jean- Marie Finot.

Born in 1941, Deceased April 2, 2025.


- Disparition de Jean-Marie Finot, un grand dans l'hemisphere de l'architecture navale.

-Practically, born to be at the beginning of the boom de la "plaisance en France" and on a very large

- Also the first I believe, to use computers as drawing tools to develop Naval Architecture for 

pleasure boats.

- If you are interested in Yacht Racing, it is hard to forget Revolution.
