Europ Assistance: assisting the 60-ft monohull Generali, naturally

The Round Britain and Ireland Challenge in June 2007, the crew Fastnet Race in August 2007, the two-crew Transat Jacques Vabre in October/November 2007, the solo Transat in June 2008, the Vendée Globe in November 2008… For three years, 4,500 Europ Assistance Group employees in more than 34 countries worldwide and its 208 active correspondents in more than 200 countries will be on permanent standby to provide, when needed, all the onshore solutions to help Yann Eliès win the leadership on all the oceans of the world, with peace of mind.

Through global assistance made available to the Generali monohull, its skipper and crew, the Europ Assistance Group – inventor of the assistance concept in 1963 – once again illustrates its ability to provide responses that simplify the lives of its customers more than ever, in both the most exceptional and most ordinary of situations.

A symbol of its standing commitment, 24/7, the Europ Assistance Group will have a visual presence on the Generali's telecommunications dome. At thousands of nautical miles, Yann Eliès and his crew will be able to count on the team's performance, as well as a pioneering spirit and integrity, two of the five values that each day drive the 4,500 employees of the Europ Assistance Group to conquer world leadership in modern assistance.
