Les Voiles de Saint-Tropez celebrated their 20th anniversary in style this past week. Glamorous summer weather and beautiful breezes resulted in some epic races right up close to the shores of France’s Var region. A spectacle of sails and craft both classic and modern provided an incredible scene of yachting by 4000 sailors and their array of 300 boats.

The 30th edition of the Maxi Yacht Rolex Cup delivered a week of pulsating action, consummate skill and elevated performance. The contest is the pinnacle of large monohull yacht racing, attracting the best boats, the most passionate owners and the finest crews. South African sailors were amongst these crews to take positions on the podium. A fleet of 53 yachts competed in the 2019 Maxi Yacht Rolex Cup.
