In the Classic Marconi category, Argynne III secured a well-deserved 3rd place after a steady and consistent season against an experienced fleet. The 1955 Marconi cutter more than demonstrated an ability to compete at the highest level in classic yacht regattas, and further reinforces Monaco’s presence in this iconic group.
Meanwhile, the 1908 gaff cutter Viola belonging to Kostia Belkin also secured 3rd place in the Vintage gaff. Having already been presented with the coveted Neptune 2025 classic sailing trophy, the boat continues to excel in one of the most representative traditional yachting categories.
