Mr Way said it had been a “complex operation carried out safely and efficiently thanks to the skill and cooperation of everyone involved”.

“From the initial coastguard response through to the refloating and righting of the trimaran, the teamwork, professionalism and seamanship has been exemplary,” he said.

“I’m pleased that a potentially serious incident at sea has been brought to a positive conclusion.”

A spokesperson for the Koesio team said the trimaran had been towed to St Malo with the aim of returning it in due course to its home port of La Rochelle.
