Franck Cammas (born 22 December 1972 in Aix-en-Provence) is a French yachtsman.〔(Franck Cammas' biography ), official Franck Cammas website〕 He has lived in Brittany since his victory in the Challenge Espoir Crédit Agricole in 1994. After completing a two year maths course for the ‘Grandes écoles’, as well as a piano academy, Franck Cammas finally opted for a career in sailing. In 1997, at the age of 24, he won the Solitaire du Figaro and a year later helmed his first trimaran christened ''Groupama''. Despite his late entry into competition, he is one of the most talented and respected sailors in the Ocean Racing Multihull Association world. Later, Cammas was skipper of the trimaran ''Groupama 2'', with which he won five ORMA championships. His last trimaran, the ''Groupama 3'' was designed to break ocean racing records. ''Groupama 2'' holds the record for being the fastest yacht in a transat Jacques Vabre race and ''Groupama 3'' once broke Jules Verne Trophy, which she held for nearly two years. After winning Route du Rhum and the Jules Verne Trophy in 2010, Cammas has switched from multihull to monohull racing and won the 2011–12 Volvo Ocean Race〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Volvo Ocean Race: Groupama secure second French win )〕 with the Open 70 ''Groupama 4''.
