Yacht Club de Monaco was represented in Arcachon for the double-hander sailing championship for people with disabilities. The national Championnat de France Handivalide Double was held on 1-4 May with 95 teams in competition and six races completed in light to moderate wind conditions. It all made up for a fantastic spectacle to watch from the quay in a super-friendly, inclusive atmosphere summed up the “Hansa attitude”. Two teams were sailing under the Monaco colours, both qualifying for the Gold group of best crews. Nicolas Lelu pulled off an impressive 9th place, while Christiane Gautier came 26th.
As well as the sporting performance, this championship confirmed the momentum driving inclusive sailing in France. The focus is now on the next major event, the Navicap Challenge organised by Yacht Club de Monaco 28-30 November 2025. This event has become a must for the Hansa class and attendant sailing community which is looking forward to the next edition.
