Categories Non classéFROM PASSION TO EXPERTISE, REMY FOURRE’S JOURNEY AT IGUANA YACHTS Post author By Sasha Rouxel Post date 27 February 2025 Since a young age, Rémy Fourré has been passionate about electricity. Today, he applies his expertise at Iguana Yachts, playing a key role in the electrical installation of the Iguanas. From his inspiring journey to his daily work driven by innovation, he shares his experience and the challenges of his profession.Read the following interview to learn more about his work at Iguana Yachts.TELL US MORE ABOUT YOURSELF “As a child, I loved taking apart my toys to understand how they worked. One day, I had a small broken computer, and I decided to open it up and try to fix it. To my great joy, I succeeded! We lived in a house under renovation, and I watched the electricians work with fascination. That is how I became interested in exploring this profession. So, I pursued a vocational high school diploma in electrotechnical and communicative equipment at Lycée Dumont d’Urville in Caen (Normandy). After three years of studies, I wanted to enter the workforce directly. However, the construction industry felt too repetitive for my taste.It was around this time that Iguana Yachts reached out to me to join their team. Today, I have been working there for nearly six years. I was involved in the recruitment campaign for the manufacturing of the X100, a new project launched in 2019.”“I am now a technical leader in the electrical department at Iguana Yachts. As my manager’s second-in-command, I take on a leadership role in his absence and handle some administrative tasks, including reporting. Additionally, I was elected as a representative in the company’s Social and Economic Committee (CSE). I enjoy representing my colleagues and highlighting their skills. This helps foster strong team cohesion.” THE IMPORTANCE OF AN IN-HOUSE TEAM OF ELECTRICIANS “We are a team of four in-house electricians, responsible for electrical installations. The advantage of working in-house is that we are trained and specialized, especially for amphibious boats, whose technology is highly advanced. Additionally, this allows us to stay connected with the teams that assembled the boat. As a result, we have a tracking file that enables us to communicate effectively and have a thorough knowledge of every component on the boat.”“We oversee the entire boat from start to finish. We install the main electrical system during pre-decking, then move on to the finishing stage, which requires time and precision. We also ensure that all materials are waterproof to prevent any water infiltration.I enjoy every phase of the process, particularly wiring the cabins for the Iguana Commuter and working on the consoles, which require a keen eye for detail and luxurious finishes.” Today, our boats are stunning, with high-end finishes and remarkable quality. I have a soft spot for the Bow Rider design, which is a true gem in terms of craftsmanship.WHY BOATS INSTEAD OF HOUSES? “Our boats are impressive and technologically innovative. Before joining Iguana Yachts, I did not know amphibious technology, especially not in Normandy! I was immediately drawn to the product. What I particularly enjoy about my job is the variety of tasks. There is no monotony, and we have the privilege of being both autonomous and part of a strong team. The flexibility of our work allows us to engage in different aspects of the manufacturing process, making it highly rewarding.”A MEMORABLE EXPERIENCE“On January, 2020, I had the opportunity to attend the Düsseldorf Boat Show with the team. We started the trip with a team-building activity before diving into the exhibition. This experience was incredibly enriching; it inspired us to refine the aesthetics and optimize the electrical design of our boats.” From left to right, Zied.B (Electricity leader), Rémy.F, Maximilien.L, Mohammed.K (absent)Interested in joining the team?

Categories Non classéMEET ELODIE THIERRY: FROM CARPENTRY TO THE NAUTICAL INDUSTRY Post author By Sasha Rouxel Post date 30 January 2025 This month, we had the pleasure of interviewing Elodie Thierry. Her career knew a bold change. From working in a call center to becoming a skilled carpenter, Elodie’s story is both inspiring and empowering. Over the past two years at Iguana, she has embraced challenges, discovered the fascinating realm of amphibious boats, and thrived in an environment that values teamwork and innovation.Read the following interview as we explore her path, her role, and her thoughts on working at Iguana.TELL US MORE ABOUT YOURSELF “I am a trained carpenter, but three years ago, I was still working as a call center hostess. Seeking a career change, I decided to move towards manual work. Therefore, I completed a seven-month carpentry training at AFPA (National Organization for Adult Professionalization Training) a little over two years ago.After that, Benoît Beukels, the current production manager, contacted me via Indeed. He was looking for a carpenter to handle the fittings on boats after deck installation. Since I was not familiar with this area, I suggested visiting the site to better understand the job. It was a real challenge because fittings are a complex discipline, and I had no prior experience in the nautical industry. But I was intrigued, so I took the leap.This month marks my two-year anniversary with the company, and I am thrilled with my choice. Working in a field I did not know before has been incredibly rewarding. Previously, I focused mainly on interior fittings: furniture, kitchens, and bathrooms. Who would have thought I would one day specialize in outfitting boats?”WHAT ARE YOUR RESPONSABILITIES?“In my role, I am primarily responsible for heads, certain interior fittings, and the fittings on boats. Regarding heads, the work involves several steps: designing panels made of Forex (a type of plastic material), laying floors, installing the head, building furniture, and assembling everything.Then, the Forex panels are used to cover surfaces.”“I take measurements, install them, and handle the finishing touches, such as lighting or the flush buttons. I also handle plumbing connections.In addition to heads, I work on fittings after the deck installation and on the exterior details on the deck. Sometimes, I collaborate on group projects, like installing the RIB tubes, which require strong teamwork. I enjoy both working in a team and handling tasks independently, and I adapt well to any situation.” It is amazing to build boats, but it is even better to try them out. Seeing our work in action is incredibly fulfilling. It also makes us realize the importance of what we do.WHAT DO YOU THINK ABOUT IGUANA YACHTS? “Before joining Iguana, I had never heard of amphibious boats. It was through being contacted for a job that I discovered the brand and its products. I immediately found it fascinating.Iguana boats stand out from the typical boats you see in ports. Here, everything is focused on leisure: the boats are new, elegant, and modern, very different from traditional commercial vessels.”“Standing next to one, especially when it is on its tracks, you realize its impressive size. It is inspiring, and it gives me a sense of pride to contribute to their construction.What motivated me to join Iguana was primarily curiosity. I was excited by the idea of learning something new and discovering a different industry.”TEAMWORK AT THE HEART OF OUR WORK“What I appreciate about Iguana is both the product and my job. The variety of tasks and the hands-on nature of the work make each day interesting and stimulating.Teamwork and kindness are core values here. I have never hesitated to ask for help because the team is always ready to support each other. There is no judgment, just a shared drive to grow together. This mindset is also reflected in how we welcome newcomers: we share our knowledge with patience and kindness. It creates a truly enjoyable and motivating work environment.” Interested in joining the team? Check out our latest positions. JOIN THE TEAM
