Anne-Marie and Jean Fran\u00e7ois Quillet, both passionate navigators, discovered the beauty of the caribbean in 1990 whilst sailing a board a Casamance, a catamaran from the Fountain-Pajot shipyard.<\/p>\n

They decided in 1991 to buy 3 catamarans and offer them for rental to the growing number of like minded sailing enthusiasts, so that they may share in the beauty of the Caribbean islands including Antigua and St Martin departing from Guadeloupe. And thus was created Corail Caraibes Guadeloupe, their first base.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

Anne-Maries desire to enrich the fleet by working with renown French shipyards in this up and coming catamaran cruising market lead her to invest in further vessels from Fountain \u2013Pajot and Lagoon.<\/p>\n

Faced with the growing attraction of the Grenadines and an eagerness to provide new and exciting destinations in the southern Caribbean for their flourishing clientele, Anne Marie and Jean Fran\u00e7ois opened their second base in 1996.<\/p>\n

Corail Caraibes Martinique was born.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

Florence Quillet \u2013Balutaud, like her parents fell in love with sailing around the caribbean and joined the company in 2009. Bringing fresh ideas to open up the availability of the fleet. The navigation should not be reserved for experienced navigators, the idea for personalised, unforgettable holidays available to all was realised in 2012.<\/p>\n

Florence diversified the fleet allowing Corail Caraibes to satisfy both sailors and holiday makers in search of comfort, all while preserving the purely french DNA of the company. Catamarans from Nautitech and Neel shipyards intergrated the fleet.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

Lulled from an early age by her sailing family, she was organising sailing trips with friends at 18. Regaling her entourage with numerous stories of sailing exploits\u00a0\u00a0and navigational triumphs with infectious passion.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Florence embarks with great pleasure on maritime escapades transmitting her nautical knowledge to the most novice of sailors, so that they may discover and share her passion. In 2009, unable to make a choice between her medical profession and the world of sailing, she rose to\u00a0\u00a0the challenge of combining medicine and sailing on a daily basis by taking over the family business.<\/p>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n \n

The north-west wind from the Bay of Biscay pushed Beno\u00eet's yacht \u2018TIMAC\u2019 and his family towards the Caribbean where he earned a living  alternating between nautical maintenance and prestigious regattas on exceptional yachts in the northern islands. During his journey, he was bowled over by the beauty of the island of flowers (MARTINIQUE) where he dropped anchor in 2018 after 8 years of life on board.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

With his knowledge of the West Indies, he will be able to give you the latest advice on your navigational program. Benoit and his team are looking forward to welcoming you to Martinique very soon.<\/p>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n \n
