The boat was the one design class for the Tour de France à la voile from 1999 to 2010, until it was replaced by the M34 in 2011.
The design was originally named for its sponsor, champagne producer G. H. Mumm. When the sponsorship ended in 2007, the class was renamed after the designer instead.
At one time a World Sailing international class, it gave up its status in 2018 and the class club ceased operations in 2020.
