On 06 July 2025, Voyager was sailing from Guernsey to St Malo when it picked up a distress call from a yacht a few miles south of Jersey.
With the yacht’s skipper taken ill and the vessel struggling in force 6 winds and two metre seas, Captain Pierre Hingant launched a rescue boat and three St Malo-based crew – Julien Le Gal, Valentin Abbé and Clément Touzé – went to the yacht’s aid.
Working closely with the RNLI Jersey crew, they helped stabilise the yacht and its skipper until the lifeboat arrived.
We’re proud of Julien, Valentin, Clément and the whole Voyager team for their professionalism, courage and exceptional teamwork.
The rescue featured in the new series of Saving Lives at Sea, which was broadcast in episode 4 at 8pm on 08 September. Watch the episode here.
