Charles de Bourbon des Deux Siciles determined to win at home
The Principality of Monaco is all set to host the grand finale of the 2025 Smeralda 888 International Championship, now called Trophée Adalberto Miani as a tribute to this iconic member of the Yacht Club de Monaco who passed away in 2024. From 10 to 12 October, 14 teams will line up on the start, including eight flying the YCM flag, to end a season that has been fiercely competitive from start to finish.
Two Yacht Club de Monaco teams on top
Yacht Club de Monaco members on the Cape 31 Med Circuit 2025 produced some excellent results in this championship that attracted over 20 teams from 16 nations to the five events held between Hyères, Porquerolles, San Remo, Imperia and Palma.
Two Monaco teams take on the challenge
At Porto Maurizio in Liguria the fourth stage of the J/70 Italia Cup enjoyed three days of challenging sailing, with two teams on the start representing Yacht Club de Monaco.
A vintage year for YCM members
The 27th Les Voiles de Saint-Tropez concluded after a full-on week of racing, with crews experiencing hesitant breezes, choppy waters and tight starts. Yacht Club de Monaco members more than held their own, often in the vanguard and always in with a chance.
YCM on the podium of a unique event
Two days and 11 races on a beautiful stretch of water facing Antibes’ ramparts delighted 52 teenagers, aged 12 to 17, all sharing the same passion for sailing. The 3rd IBSA Regatta, the only international competition for young people with a disability, again lived up to expectations ashore and at sea.
Monaco sailors competing
orty-nine crews numbering a total of 200 sailors from 13 nations descended on Yacht Club Porto Rotondo in Italy which hosted the RS21 World Championship at the end of September. The atmosphere was electric as this relatively new class reached another milestone in 2025, with this its most international and competitive event to date.
YCM members top the bill
The 47th Régates Royales de Cannes lived up to expectations with over 120 classic sailboats at the meeting. For a week, the bay of Cannes was blessed with light winds gusting over 20 knots to produce an exciting spectacle full of suspense.
3rd place for Alegre
After a week of changeable Sardinian conditions, YCM member Andres Soriano and his crew on Alegre left Porto Cervo with a well-earned 3rd place.
After a solid start to the regatta, including 3rd in the second race, the YCM-flagged TP52 raced with impressive consistency. In a Mistral blowing over 25 knots, Andres Soriano and his men even led the fleet in the provisional ranking before ceding to Sled who went on to win the event.
Anticipate today to build the yachting of tomorrow
The theme Our Ocean, Our Obligation, Our Opportunity of World Maritime Day, organised by the International Maritime Organization, reflects the vital role the Ocean plays on the day Yacht Club de Monaco (YCM) gathered a hundred superyacht captains and international experts for the 29th Captains’ Forum entitled Leading today ahead of tomorrow. The event, created in 2007 and organised by the YCM Captains’ Club, brought together more than 115 superyacht captains, representing a combined fleet length of 4,973 metres, and recently welcomed 14 new members.
Rewarding those who explore in a different way

As part of the collective ‘Monaco, Capital of Advanced Yachting’ approach, YCM brought together 64 owners of yachts over 40m flying the YCM flag for its annual Owners Lunch. A total of 2,344 linear metres represented confirms the Club’s central role in the global yachting world.
