Argentario Sailing Week 2013 kicks off tomorrow as “the magic of Classic Yachts returns to Tuscany”.
It is the second in the Panerai Mediterranean circuit this year and 48 yachts are attending from France, Germany, Spain, the UK, USA and Italy. Some of the gems of the Mediterranean: Cambria (Bermudian Cutter – 23-Metre, built in 1928), Mariette of 1915 (Herreshoff Schooner, built in 1915) and Mariquita (Fore and Aft Cutter, built in 1911 and under new enthusiastic ownership).
The boats are docked at the old harbor of Porto Santo Stefano, also known as “La Pilarella”. Sailing lovers and enthusiasts have the golden opportunity of admiring close-up the classic beauties which have made the history of yachting for over a century.
The flat waters present the perfect sailing environment and with an expected 15 knots on the first day the week’s going to start at pace!
