A symbolic debut for Pixel sur Mer in the IRC world

The Spi Ouest-France 2025 saw a dazzling start for the brand-new JPK 10.50 #1. On board, the duo - Alexis Loison and Jean-Pierre Kelbert - and a major technological asset: Exocet Essential, our latest-generation onboard processor.

Victory in its first official race

Historically rooted in ocean racing, Pixel sur Mer is ambitiously expanding its playing field. The IRC class represents a new challenge, perfectly aligned with our vision: to offer sailors reliable, intelligent tools focused on performance.

A promising victory for this first official race, the fruit of a perfectly mastered synergy: sharp hull, top-level design, experienced crew and a navigation processor designed to make the difference from the very first tacks.

Designed to offer an immediate tactical advantage, Exocet Essential has established itself as a true strategic ally on board.

Congratulations to the crew and all those responsible for this success.

This victory is also the victory of all the hands that contributed to the design and development of this first production JPK 10.50. From naval architecture to embedded electronics, every detail mattered.

Our heartfelt congratulations to Alexis Loison and Jean-Pierre Kelbert.

A beginning that shapes the future

Three JPK 10.50s are now equipped with our Exocet Essential technology. And the early results are more than encouraging: the second boat, still in the handover phase, achieved a remarkable 12th place with Régis Vian and Ludovic Gerard on board. The prospects for the rest of the season are already bright. Next up: Régis Vian's JPK 10.50 #3.

With Exocet Essential, Pixel sur Mer asserts itself more than ever as a key player in onboard performance.

The story begins. And it begins at the top.
