Jules Verne

Next to his passion for science fiction, he loved the sea and sailed around Europe in his boat Saint-Michel.  He was born in Nantes at the Loire River in the Upper Brittany region of western France, where also GE’s Offshore Wind business is located.  

We are proud to announce the next Service Operation Vessel of Bernhard Schulte, designed and built by Ulstein, will carry the name „WINDEA JULES VERNE“. 

She will be used by the GE operations team very soon at the Merkur Offshore windfarm.
