May 4, 2012, the solar- powered catamaran, PlanetSolar, being the first
to circle our planet using solar energy, entered Monaco's harbor, after
a navigation of 19 months.
On board was an original letter by Jules Verne, from the Margot
collection at the House of Elsewhere in Yverdon, Switzerland.

Après 584 jours de navigation autour du globe, le MS Tûranor PlanetSolar
a bouclé son périple le vendredi 4 mai 2012 devenant ainsi le *premier
bateau à avoir effectué un tour du monde uniquement grâce à l'énergie du
soleil*.
Il avait à bord un autographe provenant de la collection Margot de la
Maison d'Ailleurs à Yverdon en Suisse.
