  • designed by François Vivier, built between 2019 and 2021 by the Treizour Association in Douarnenez, France, as a workboat and sardinière modeled on sardine fishing boats on the coast (Côtes de Cornouaille) around 1890.
  • used for sailing trips with young people and other guests, operated by a support association of the Douarnenez Maritime Museum, which is dedicated to preserving the museum's traditional vessels.
  • christened during the Douarnenez Summer Festival in July 2022. named "Joséphine" after Joséphine Marie Pencalet (1886-1972), who worked as a canning factory worker in Douarnenez and was one of the first women in France to be elected to a municipal council in 1925, although this election was annulled shortly thereafter; she is considered today a symbolic figure of a fighter for women's rights and the rights of socially disadvantaged people in France.
