Built in 2000, this ship was made to present a French model for the National Selection. She recieved a Silver medal in the August 2000.

Pierre writes that his favorite sources for his projects are:
  • The Floating Drydock
  • Warship Pictorials
  • Anatomy of the Ship series
  • Squadron Signal Publications
  • Norman Friedman's Illustrated Design History Books
  • Larry Sowinsky (Pacific War)
  • Gold Medal Models Products
  • and of course L'Arsenal
I also took a lot of pictures of models from Gibb's and Cox in the Maritime Museum in Washington
