Environmental protection on our ORC57

On Avel Vaez, we do our utmost to preserve our immense playground: the ocean. Our catamaran, which sails most of the time, already offers cruises with a low carbon footprint. To go even further, a few common-sense rules will help our crew members to limit their impact on the environment during their activities aboard our catamaran:

• Rule #E1:
  It is forbidden to throw waste into the sea. Waste must be separated and deposited on land in the collection systems available.
• Rule #E2:
  It is preferable not to leave your garbage on the islands. Prefer collection systems located on the mainland.
• Rule #E3:
  When authorized by local regulations, organic waste may be dumped at sea. In the absence of local regulations, organic waste may be dumped overboard beyond four miles from the coast.
• Rule #E4:
  The skipper must give his/her consent before any waste is discharged into the sea.
