The Monaco Yacht Club is not just a landmark; it’s a hub that connects its members to the sea and the epitome of the yachting lifestyle. More than a prestigious club, it serves as a global platform advocating for sustainability within the yachting industry.
This year, the YCM celebrates the 10th anniversary of its stunning building designed by Lord Foster, underscoring Monaco’s dedication to yachting and its vision of “Monaco, Capital of Advanced Yachting.” The club hosts innovative events like the Monaco Energy Boat Challenge and the SEA Index, driving sustainable yachting practices and aiming for a positive global impact.
In homage to the YCM’s unique legacy, Assouline has released a beautifully crafted book that encapsulates the club’s essence. With a foreword by HSH Prince Albert II, the book is narrated by renowned yachting journalist Jill Bobrow. Bobrow, the founding editor of Boat International USA and former editor-in-chief of ShowBoats International, brings her extensive expertise and passion to this project. She has co-authored over twenty books on yachting and luxury, making her the perfect storyteller for the YCM.
Combining rich history, innovation, and a commitment to sustainability, the Yacht Club de Monaco remains the heartbeat of the Principality, extending its influence far beyond its physical location.
