« It’s a very manly and closed circle. But if you’re passionate about sailing, you can fit in. » That’s what happened to Véronique Seremes.
A sea passionate from a very young age, this native of Guadeloupe has just joined the Martinique autonomous pilotage station. And she is certainly not a beginner.
On her CV, she shows over 15 years of experience in the merchant navy, between the SNCM, based in Marseille, which carries passengers and goods to Corsica, and Genavire, company for which she piloted survey vessels in charge of surveying the seabed. Noumea, Australia, Taiwan, China… the scientists gave her the opportunity to sail on far away waters.
