A reference edition! This 24th edition of the Voiles de Saint-Tropez is undoubtedly one to remember. Each of the two weeks saw the world’s most beautiful yachts, both classic and modern, compete against each other, sometimes in the wind, sometimes in light airs. 46 of the latter, called Maxi because of their size over 60 feet, constituted one of the largest gatherings of this type in the Mediterranean. The last.

The last event of their inshore circuit, Saint-Tropez saw the coronation of Capricorno, best Maxi of the season orchestrated by the International Maxi Association. The IMA has also taken advantage of the dynamics of the Voiles to open its doors to Multihulls, and to foilers, who are now invited to the Tropézienne starting lines.
The village, the beating heart of the Voiles One of the great satisfactions of President Roinson and his teams is, beyond the show and the sporting aspect, the beautiful conviviality encountered throughout the 15 days in the heart of the Village of the Sails, the essential nerve centre for the expression of the good humour of the sailors who came from all over the world. An eco-designed village that was also unanimously appreciated until late each evening.
