This Class40 monohull, hull no. 131, was launched in Saint-Nazaire on 15 July 2013 for Damien Seguin under the colours of ERDF - Des Pieds et des Mains. It is fitted with an electric motor. Seguin sailed the 2013 Transat Jacques Vabre with Yoann Richomme (seventh, after a stop in Spain for damaged wind vanes) and then the 2014 Route du Rhum, finishing eighth.
In 2016 the boat was entrusted to Isabelle Joschke as Generali, her first Class40 season. A leak forced her to quit the Transat anglaise in May 2016, yet she ended the Class40 championship in fourth place. In 2017 the boat became Gustave Roussy, with Christophe Rateau and Sylvain Pontu finishing eighth in the Transat Jacques Vabre.
In 2018 it was renamed Fondation DigestScience and given to Romain Rossi, aiming at the Route du Rhum. He was fourth in the ArMen Race, eleventh in the Normandy Channel Race and 23rd in the Drheam Cup, but the Rhum was plagued by technical problems: a stop in Gijón, then another in Madeira that led to disqualification.
In 2019 the boat became Kerhis, named after a software publisher. Pierre-Antoine Tesson and Paul Gallet took it to 19th place in the 2019 Transat Jacques Vabre.
