Merci

Galileo was launched in 2005 in Brazil by Artech do Brasil, to an Angelo Lavranos design, for Brazilian skipper Walter Antunes. Under that name she only raced the 2005 Transat Jacques Vabre (11th) with Raphaël Coldefy.

Jean-Baptiste Dejeanty bought her in 2006 with sponsor Maisonneuve and the backing of the Basse-Normandie region. He finished 9th in the 2006 Route du Rhum, 11th in the 2007 Transat Jacques Vabre with Hervé Laurent and 10th in the 2007 Transat B to B. In the 2008-2009 Vendée Globe he returned to Les Sables-d'Olonne the day after the start, restarted a week later and retired in the Indian Ocean on 16 December 2008 with multiple damage.

Conrad Colman bought her in 2015 and renamed her Foresight Natural Energy, aiming to race the Vendée Globe without fossil energy. 12th in the 2016 New York-Vendée transatlantic, he was dismasted off Portugal on 10 February 2017 during the 2016-2017 Vendée Globe but reached the finish under jury rig in 16th place on 24 February 2017.

Auctioned in March 2019 (starting price €50,000), the boat was bought in late 2019 by Sébastien Destremau, who entered her as Merci in the 2020-2021 Vendée Globe. He retired on 16 January 2021 off New Zealand after an accumulation of damage (hydraulic keel, bowsprit, autopilot).
