Erik Lerouge founded his design company in 1976 and since then has designed more than 200 craft including trimarans, catamarans and monohulls, cruisers, racers and dinghies.

He grew up opposite a boatyard in Cherbourg and with an ambition from childhood to design boats. Multihulls were an early influence. Friends of his helped form the French Multihull Association; imported the first Prout Shearwater catamaran into France; promoted the Exocet, the first successful French catamaran as well as locally built Pivers.

In 1970, a friend became French Tornado champion and Erik Lerouge bought a Tornado for himself
