Olympic Games 2024: rehearsal of the opening ceremony scheduled for April 8 postponed due to flooding of the Seine. 180 boats between 8 m and 85 m long will be mobilized on the big day.
Half (94) will be reserved for welcoming sports delegations, the other half (86) devoted to security and technical teams and repairs to possible faulty barges. A first technical test in the presence of around forty boats from “group 1” to receive athletes from all over the world took place last July.
