COMMENTS: ARMIDE (ex LA BOUFFONNE) was built in France in 1938 at the
Chantier du Bas Fort at Nid Saint Georges in Marseille for Mr de Saint-Pierre.
In 1966 she has been bought by Mr M. & Mr G., then in 1990, by Mr Jean
P. who undertook at that time a complete refurbishment at Chantier du Pharo in Marseille.
In January 2016 Armide was sold to new owners from Luxembourg who decided to undertake again a complete refurbishment at Classic Works, La Ciotat.
From January 2016 until September 27th 2018 Armide was in the hangar of Claissc Works undergoing reconstruction. On September 27th 2018 Armide was launched and the masts were reinstalled. Outfitting was finalised and sea trials were conducted in fall 2018 and Armide was finally delivered to its home base, the port of Sanary, on 21 December 2018.
