The Django series, a line of fast cruisers designed by Pierre Rolland
Marée Haute is a Breton shipyard based in Trégunc (Finistère Sud, near Concarneau). It produces in series the sailboats of the Django range, all designed by naval architect Pierre Rolland, using foam sandwich infusion.
Foundation and trajectory
The shipyard was founded in 2004 by Serge Calvez, a trained cabinetmaker, who commissioned Pierre Rolland to design a first prototype in molded wood. The range quickly shifted to series production in infused composite. The Django 7.70 was awarded Sailboat of the Year 2011 — a key moment that doubled the shipyard's turnover and established the brand. The Django 12.70 was later nominated for European Yacht of the Year 2017.
Method and organization
Vacuum infusion construction on foam sandwich, from 5.50 m to 12.70 m. The Marée Haute group employs around 35 people across three sites: Trégunc (construction yard), Riec-sur-Belon, and Concarneau. Since 2017, the group also operates the Marée Haute – Minaouët dry storage facility (repair, maintenance, storage).
