Geest Line would like to congratulate Veronique Seremes on becoming the first Lady Pilot in the French West Indies. Veronique had worked as a Chief officer for SNCM Ferry company in France but had always since childhood wanted to one day become a Pilot and in December 2013 she passed her Pilot exams and in February this year joined and trained with the Pilots of Martinique. Veronique has always thought that her work as a Pilot is a vocation and not just simply a job.

We wish Veronique well and certainly welcome her on board the Geest vessels.
