Wooden You Know It

During the Monaco Yacht Show, the principality went Dutch. Not that checks were split but rather wooden shoes began popping up all over. As if the Dutch Cinderella had run through town and lost more than one shoe.

Or as if a group of Lilliputians had sailed to show to check out some yachts.

New Wider Yacht

When Tilli Antonelli stepped before the gathered reporters during the Wider breakfast press conference during the Monaco Yacht Show, the lights dimmed and the projector lit up. And Antonelli introduced …

A 33-foot Wider boat.

The crowd clapped, but it seemed a bit obligatory. It was 8:30 a.m., and yes the 42-foot Wider was a success—but to go smaller? It seemed a bit odd.

But Antonelli kept clicking through slides to introduce where that 33-footer would be kept: the 150-foot Wider megayacht.

The new face of the tender.

The buzz word at this year’s Monaco Yacht Show seems to be tender. As preparations are well underway for the show, Hodgdon Yachts announced it will be presenting their limo tender.

This tender was chosen for the American-owned Seven Seas.

Cote d’Azur Yacht Spotting

Last week was the Monaco Yacht Show followed by some in-depth reporting along the Cote d’Azur.

It was a yacht-spotter’s dream.

At one port, at least five of the PMY Top 100 were tucked in for winter.

Over the next few days, I’ll post my pictures. But here’s Pelorus to start. She was anchored off Antibes.
