IWC Yacht Club II 3311 Quartz – Gerald Genta

ii yacht club

The Yacht Club II, penned by Gerald Genta, has been undervalued for most of its existence. Only in the last two years has the demand for the models with integrated steel bracelet exploded. From our point of view, there is still no end in sight. Especially the steel models are in high demand. An increase in value is still to be expected. This model has minior patina on case and bracelet but technically great.

The rhodium gray dial is in almost perfect condition, as the hands are.

This cool monochrome watch is a beautiful example of the 1980s Genta Designs.

Case and bracelet have been polished during the years but are still in good shape.

IWC Caliber 2250 The steel bracelet fits up to about 19cm wrist circumference.

Time Machines: Delving Into The ‘Cult Of Genta’ With The IWC Yacht Club II Watch

ii yacht club

Ask any enthusiast to name one watch designer, and the answer will almost invariably be Gérald Genta. Over the course of his decades-long career, Genta designed watches for a dizzying variety of brands from Audemars Piguet to Credor, launched multiple brands of his own, and arguably created the entire genre of integrated bracelet luxury sports watches singlehandedly. Still, even over a decade after his passing, Genta remains a monolithic figure in the watch community, and no designer before or since has garnered nearly the same sort of reverence among fans. What is it, then, that makes Gérald Genta such a unique focus for both enthusiasts and high-dollar collectors? Perhaps the best way to explore what makes Genta a cult figure in the watch community is to contemplate one of his designs – in this case, the late ‘70s IWC Yacht Club II. Slender, elegant, and bursting with understated complexity, the IWC Yacht Club II distills many of Genta’s favorite design cues into a clean and restrained package, without the baggage of many of his more famous designs.

ii yacht club

Introduced at the height of the Quartz Crisis in 1977, the Yacht Club II was the second integrated watch Gérald Genta designed for IWC after 1974’s more famous Ingenieur. The previous C-cased Yacht Club had been a perennial bestseller for the brand through much of the ‘60s and ‘70s, but like the rest of the industry, it had suffered substantially from cheaper, more accurate Japanese quartz competition. Rather than vehemently rejecting the idea of quartz and moving as upmarket as possible, à la Audemars Piguet, IWC instead settled on a hybrid strategy, creating world-class mechanical timepieces and supplementing them with luxe takes on still-innovative quartz technology. The Yacht Club II was the lynchpin of this new strategy, offered with both an in-house IWC Caliber 2250 quartz movement and an ultra-thin JLC 889 automatic and presented as a more casual, lifestyle-oriented alternative to the more seriously sporting Ingenieur or Aquatimer. Genta’s design for the Yacht Club II reflects this philosophy, with a softer, less utilitarian silhouette than the Ingenieur, multiple strap and bracelet options, and an emphasis on slimness.

ii yacht club

The IWC Yacht Club II’s case sits at the heart of this design concept. This reference 3312 “Jumbo” model measures in at 38mm wide, but much of the overall form emphasizes this watch’s low, broad stance on the wrist. The stout, squared-off integrated lugs play a major part in this stance, barely extending beyond the bezel and tapering only gently from the case’s widest point. Like many other Genta designs, the overall case shape is roughly octagonal, anchored by a wide octagonal bezel, but in this case, the geometric form continues uninterrupted into squared-off, vertical potions of the case sides at 3 o’clock and 9 o’clock. Rather than coming across as brutish or heavy, however, these segments instead work to emphasize just how slender the Yacht Club II is on the wrist, particularly thanks to the even slimmer lug profiles on either side. In true Genta fashion, however, the geometric bezel forms the centerpiece of the case. Rather than Genta’s most famous models, which either define this bezel in harsh polished angles or smooth curves, the Yacht Club II combines both into a broad, intriguing shape defined more by finishing than crisp, distinct planes. The uppermost surface of this bezel is circular and fully flat, crowned with smooth, understated radial brushing. Between this top layer and the octagonal bezel edge is an exceedingly gradual sloping polished chamfer, which contrasts dramatically with both the flat circular bezel top and the sheer, vertical planes of the bezel edge. Genta confidently left this chamfer as the only brightwork anywhere on the Yacht Club II’s exterior, with both the rest of the case and the bracelet finished with restrained, gentle brushing. That’s not to say the watch isn’t excellently finished, however, and the vertical brushing on each side of the octagonal bezel — over a surface barely more than a millimeter high — reinforces the ultra-premium feel of the watch overall. In order to preserve the strength of the shape on the wrist, the crown is small and deeply recessed, and the crystal is completely flush with the bezel.

ii yacht club

Of course, any discussion of a Genta watch design isn’t complete without its bracelet, and the IWC Yacht Club II’s is a suitably crisp and restrained affair. The defining characteristic of this integrated stainless steel bracelet is its broad, oversized rectangular end links. While they may not be as distinctive a visual hallmark as the Royal Oak’s twin polished end links, these links reinforce the simpler, more subdued geometric character of the watch overall, and help the bracelet wrap impressively well around the wrist. From there, the bracelet takes on a flat tapering H-link shape, but without the rounded, raised center links of the Ingenieur or the Patek Philippe Nautilus. This flatter form and the fully brushed finishing here resonate well with the Yacht Club II’s quieter, more gentlemanly approach to integrated design, but some fans might find it oversimplified compared to Genta’s more famous integrated bracelets.

ii yacht club

Like the case and bracelet, the dial of the IWC Yacht Club II takes on many of the hallmarks of classic Genta design in a quieter, subtler way. For example, the black dial here is textured, but in a far less overt way than the Royal Oak’s tapisserie or the Nautilus’ “deck planks.” Instead, IWC uses a complex, slate-like naturalistic stone texture, allowing for a myriad of minute highlights and shadows across the matte surface. The rest of the dial is elegantly straightforward, with pointed applied indices matched by sharply faceted pencil hands. While the tritium lume application here is minimal, it has aged to a creamy light khaki tone that suits the off-black hue of the dial handsomely.

ii yacht club

Like most examples of the IWC Yacht Club II, this particular reference 3312 example is equipped with the brand’s own Caliber 2250 quartz movement. At the time of its introduction, quartz was still a novel, high-tech segment of watchmaking, and Caliber 2250 models actually retailed for more than their automatic-powered counterparts. Even today, the Caliber 2250 is an excellent example of early Swiss luxury quartz horology, with quality construction and respectable accuracy.

ii yacht club

There has never been, and there might never be, another watch designer who commands the kind of reverence from both enthusiasts and industry insiders that Gérald Genta does. While multitudes of other designers and brands have taken their attempts at the sort of integrated sports designs he helped to pioneer, few of these show the same effortless balance and fanatical attention to detail that Genta’s work portrays. The late ‘70s IWC Yacht Club II is stylish, gentlemanly proof of this “Genta magic” in action, with a more relaxed, subtle flair than many of his more industry-shaping works. Even in quartz guise, it’s a highly sought-after piece among vintage collectors, and it’s a powerful reminder of the joys to be found by looking beyond Genta’s biggest icons.

ELEGANCE JOINS FORCES WITH SPORTINESS

Elegantly proportioned cases combined with stainless-steel bracelets and rubber or textile straps make the portugieser yacht club an all-round companion.

Since 2010, the Portugieser Yacht Club, an elegant sports watch designed for sailors, has combined timeless elegance with ruggedness and high-level water-resistance. With their filigree bezels and flat casing rings, the new 44-millimetre models have particularly elegant proportions. Ticking away inside is the IWC-manufactured 89361 calibre with flyback function, which combines stopped hours and minutes in a small totalizer at “12 o’clock”. A choice of straps and bracelets make this elegant sports chronograph the perfect companion for use on board, at the beach and on terra firma. The high-quality stainless-steel bracelet, with its polished and satinfinished surfaces, is pleasant to wear. For the first time ever, the watch is also available with a bicolour bracelet in 18-carat 5N gold and stainless steel. In addition,  there is a choice of hard-wearing rubber and textile straps.

ii yacht club

The Portugieser Yacht Club Moon & Tide represents a technical highlight. For the first time, in this model, IWC presents its newly developed tide indicator. A totalizer at “6 o’clock” shows the times of high and low tide. Positioned at “6 o’clock” is an IWC speciality, the double moon phase display. It has been expanded to show the spring and neap tides and thus provides more information about the strength of current tides.

Two Southern California yacht clubs recognized on Top 50 list

ii yacht club

Platinum Clubs organization names Newport Harbor YC and San Diego YC to worldwide compilation.

SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA—Newport Harbor and San Diego yacht clubs both earned a spot on the Top 50 Platinum Yacht Clubs for 2020-2021, it was recently announced. The worldwide list is compiled by Platinum Clubs of the World.

Placing on the list means a yacht club is presented with the title of “Five Star Clubs of Excellence.”

San Diego YC was founded in 1886 and has recently hosted sailing events such as Women’s Winter Invitational, Yachting Cup, the CA500, the SoCal 300, Dutch Shoe Marathon, International Masters Regatta and Lipton Cup.

Newport Harbor YC first opened its doors in 1916 and hosts the Newport to Cabo Race every two years, among other regattas.

Other yacht clubs making the Top 50 list included: Annapolis Yacht Club, Beach Point Club, Chicago Yacht Club, Cruising Yacht Club of Australia, Nassau Yacht Club (Bahamas), Raffles Marina (Singapore), Real Club Nautico de Vigo (Spain), Royal Bombay Yacht Club (India), Royal Cork Yacht Club (Ireland), The Royal Prince Alfred Yacht Club (Australia), Société des Régates du Havre (France), Yacht Club de Monaco and Yacht Club Santo Amaro (Brazil).

Two Southern California yacht clubs earned an Honorable Mention, scoring within three points of the Top 50 list: Balboa Yacht Club (Newport Beach) and California Yacht Club (Marina del Rey).

Fifty yacht clubs are selected based upon points awarded by a selected panel. A yacht club must score at least 8 points to qualify for the Top 50 list. Scoring is awarded as follows: 100 points for a top three club, 80 points for a ranking between four and 10, 60 points for 11 to 25 ranking, 40 points for 26-60 ranking, 20 points for 51-75 ranking and 10 points for 76-100 ranking.

Voting was conducted by 116 panelists from all around the world; panelists hailed from the United States, Australia, Germany, Hong Kong, India, Japan, The Netherlands, Singapore, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland and United Arab Emirates. Panelists vote every two years (odd years). Finalists are selected based upon submitted recommendations from panelists and applications from yacht clubs from around the world. A final ballot is eventually created and sent out to panelists. There is a 30-day voting period, with the election conducted electronically (via a third party).

“Points are awarded by the position and ranking that the panelist assigns to each club. The total number of points is calculated and divided by the total number of panelists who have visited a club to determine the final points score,” a Platinum Clubs of the World statement about the voting process said.

The Club Leaders Forum Advisory Board of the Platinum Clubs of the World compiled the Top 50 list. Platinum Clubs of America have been recognizing top yacht clubs for more than 20 years.

New River Yacht Club II Unfolding in Fort Lauderdale, FL, Will Provide 349 Homes

ii yacht club

By: Colt Dodd 7:00 am on January 27, 2022

As it stands, New River Yacht Club is a 26-story building offering about 250 one-bedroom, two-bedroom, and three-bedroom layout plans. The three-phase project has been unfolding since the mid-2010s, and now, its second phase is underway.

New River Yacht Club II is a 36-story building offering 349 residential units. The ground floor comprises retail space, and the eighth floor serves as an amenity deck, featuring a pool. The Real Deal notes that the Related Group sold New River Yacht Club for $85 million to BJ Verde Properties in August 2021.

The second phase includes a high-rise building with luxury rentals. Rendering per CFE & Associates Architects.

Fortune Construction Company was selected as the general contractor. The project requires more than 350,000 square feet of new construction. It also involves demolishing already-existing structures on the build site. Right now, the project’s in its design development/permitting stage. It’s estimated to cost $75 million to complete.

CFE & Associates Architects designed the project and shared conceptual renderings with various media outlets. Its website shows a high-rise building with a beige, white, and yellow facade. Some units come with balconies, and the building itself overlooks a marina.

Glad to see Downtown Fort Lauderdale growing! Should be a nice addition to the skyline. Looks like they already have foundation equipment on site to start piling.

Related Group and Rabina Land $99M to Build Fort Lauderdale Rental

By julia echikson april 1, 2022 4:27 pm.

The Related Group , Miami’s largest condo developer, and New York-based Rabina scored $99 million from Truist Bank to build a high-rise rental building in Fort Lauderdale, property records show.

The development, New River Yacht Club II , is set to feature 349 units and rise 36 stories. It’s located along the New River in the city’s downtown, at 401 SW 1st Avenue . 

The project is the second phase of the New River Yacht Club complex. The joint venture completed the first phase in 2014 and last year sold the rental asset to BJ Verde Properties for $85 million.

Also in 2021, the pair offloaded the development’s third phase, rechristened as Regatta at New River , for $115 million, per records. 

Construction for the second phase has already commenced. A spokesperson for Related declined to say when the work is slated to end. 

Related, led by CEO and Chairman Jorge Pérez , bought the 1.27-acre site in 2004 for $9 million. 

Over the past year, rental rates in Fort Lauderdale have risen 25.7 percent, according to data compiled by ApartmentList . The median monthly rent for an apartment now stands at $1,406 for a one-bedroom and $1,688 for a two-bedroom.

Across the river in Flagler Village, Bluerock sold a newly completed apartment building for $195 million the previous week.

Le Yacht Club de Monaco délivre des prix pour récompenser l’exploration et l’innovation

YCM-prince-prix

Le Prince Albert II, sensible à la question, a participé à l’événement.

À l’occasion de la 7e Monaco Ocean Week, organisée à l’initiative de la Fondation Prince Albert II de Monaco aux côtés du Gouvernement Princier, de l’Institut océanographique de Monaco, et du Centre Scientifique de Monaco, le Yacht Club de Monaco a mené les échanges dans le domaine de la Grande Plaisance jeudi 21 mars dernier, et a remis les 4e « YCM Explorer Awards by La Belle Classe Superyachts », une initiative lancée en 2019.

Un jury de professionnels a attribué les prix dans les différentes catégories définies comme « technologie et innovation », « science et médiation » et « aventure et éthique environnementale », et l’engagement de ces hommes et femmes a été salué par le Souverain : «  grâce à leur forte sensibilité environnementale, ils jouent et joueront un rôle crucial dans l’exploration marine, apportant un soutien inestimable aux scientifiques et aux communautés locales. »  Le Prince Albert II a égaiement rappelé que la tradition d’exploration était profondément ancré dans l’histoire de Monaco et que nous la devons au Prince Albert 1er.

Les quatre vainqueurs sont :

  • le M/Y Gigi , un bateau de 49 mètres qui symbolise la philanthropie avec des missions nobles comme la distribution de tablettes aux écoles pour soutenir l’éducation dans les territoires dans le besoin
  • le M/V Lattitude , un navire de 47m pour ses changements techniques tels que le réalignement des moteurs, permettant d’augmenter son efficacité et sa vitesse tout en limitant son impact écologique.

Restaurant-Yacht Chaika

Ratings and reviews, location and contact.

Pleasantly surprised, service is good so is the food. Great selection of Fusion food, a mixture of Italian, Japanese, European, Asian etc. A pleasantly nice dining experience, highly recommended, a must try!

Thank you for your feedback and invite you to have lunch or dinner again aboard the ship in an atmosphere of high standards of yacht hospitality.

everything was perfect - the food, the service, the desserts were the best, nice atmosphere and the location - magical

Best food, best view in Moscow. absolutely faultless from arrival to finish. Best risotto i had for many years absolutely perfectly cooked. The view on Ukrainian hotel and the white house by night is amazing

Had to wait for the food for 1.5 hours and then another 20 minutes for the check. Finally called for the manager and he offered... a 10% discount as a compensation. Simply pathetic! The food is mediocre at best. Not bad per se, but one... would expect something better considering the prices. There are many places to eat in area that are much better. Avoid this one at all costs. More

Hello, Alexander Your comment is extremely important for us, thank you a lot for it. We are terribly sorry for your time that you`ve spent waiting your order and we have already taken actions to improve quality of our service and it would be realy... More

Food is very expensive,very pretentious, doesn't worth that money. Portions are very small. We ordered ravioli and there were 4! Four raviolis! For almost 15 euros. Then we asked to bring us dessert menu but nothing, they didn't even bothered, so we payed and left... without dessert. Very poor service for that price. More

This is a very good restaurant. The food is really good, maybe the best in Moscow. The service is also good. The view from the restaurant is great. The prices are very high.

I often visit this restaurant and must say it’s one of the best in Moscow in terms of quality and service. Staff really try hard to make sure that you are happy and satisfied. Customer service is a huge problem in Moscow but Chaika sets... a great example for others in the industry! Food is delicious and the menu has lots of options for everyone! Atmosphere is great and view is beautiful on the embankment. Special thanks to German & Oleg! More

Thank you for your feedback! Again aboard the yacht restaurant "Chaika" in accordance with the high standards of yacht hospitality.

Highly recommended, great location in the city center of Moscow with a superb atmosphere. Too many menu choices, though all delicious!

Thx a lot for your review! We are looking forward to see you in our restaurants.

Visited this lovely restaurant with a friend of mine. It was relaxingly warm August evening - so the place on the river seemed like a good idea. We came quite early and the restaurant was not full. The hostesses kindly offered several places to sit... and we chose to sit on the sofas. We had some wine, which was good. We struggled a bit when deciding about the food as few options (scallops) were not available. Fish on ice on display did not look very fresh. To be honest it was an unusually hot August and it is probably understandable that some see food options were not available. However, we did manage to order something and sat waiting and looking onto the river. My long-legged friend struggled sitting at the low sofa and the manager noticed that, offering as a very good, proper table beside the open window. It was nice touch and I was very pleased by their polite observations and immediate reaction to solve the problem. Food was quite good and presentation was perfect. Perhaps I can something about the food, but 1 visit is not enough to criticize or make a definitive opinion. Overall, quality place, which of course, does not come cheap. I would recommend this restaurant without hesitation. More

Good afternoon! Thank you for your detailed feedback! We are looking forward to seeing you again, we are sure that you will be delighted with our dishes!

I've been here several times during two business trip in Moscow. The overall quality for both service and food is absolutely top-notch, plus the location is very unique.

Hello! Thank you for your feedback! We are looking forward to visiting again!

Located on a boat at Krasnopresenskaya River Bank this 5 Star Restaurant transforms into a party location due to multiple groups hosting events. Impressive wine selection, Asian and European kitchen...

It is a nice place to gather specially at the lounge The service and staff very good I like the river view The food is almost like all restaurants in Russia they serve different cuisine. Staring Russian appetizer till Asian dishes Presentation and taste amazing... I consider it overpriced little bit More

Good location. Nice views. Good choice of food and drinks. European and Asian menu. Nice service. Pricey enough.

Had a large group dinner here. Food was above average and service quite good. The real attraction is the view of Moscow from the river on a nice night. Great place for a larger group dinner. More

Hello, John We are really pleased by reading that you and your friends were satisfied by our service, client`s experience is the highest value for us. We will be happy to see you again, come and enjoy some new dishes from our chef and nice... More

The luxurious atmosphere of this place, the view and the location make it quite outstanding. We had dinner here with friends and the dishes were amazing, accompanied by a chilled bottle of Chablis, it really made me feel as if it was a part of... the classic Russian movie. More

 Yacht Club de Monaco and The Explorers Club celebrate the spirit of adventure 

Monaco ocean week thursday 21 st march 2024  ,   yacht club de monaco and the explorers club celebrate the spirit of adventure  .

In a collaboration with The Explorers Club of New York, nearly 150 explorers made the trip for the first time to the Yacht Club de Monaco for its 13 th Environmental Symposium entitled Day of Exploration, packed with talks and meetings that concluded with the 4 th YCM Explorer Awards. Orchestrated by YCM, these meetings are key events during Monaco Ocean Week organised by the Prince Albert II of Monaco Foundation in partnership with the Monaco Government , the Monaco Oceanographic Institute and Monaco Scientific Centre . “ We are keen to work together to promote research, innovation and education. This is the ambition of the ‘Monaco, Capital of Advanced Yachting’ approach, initiated by the Yacht Club de Monaco which aims to encourage and develop sustainable, innovative yachting,” said HSH Prince Albert II.  

From yacht to human s  

A bespoke programme awaited the American delegation who came to the YCM. It included a regatta on the one design J/70 boats and sailing on YCM’s flagship, the 15M IR gaff gutter Tuiga (1909); inauguration of the first Explorer Dock attended by YCM General Secretary Bernard d’Alessandri and Sir William Roseman, Executive Director of The Explorers Club; and visits to seven explorer yachts moored in the YCM Marina, namely M/Y Prometej (45m), M/Y Santandrea (29m), S/Y NDS Evolution (26m), M/Y U Boat Navigator (24m), M/Y Beyond Capricorn (24m), M/Y Audace (46m) and M/Y King Benji (46m), the latter being christened with great pomp and ceremony. Famous faces from the offshore racing world were to be seen on the quays including Jean-Pierre Dick, two-time Barcelona World Race winner, and Boris Herrmann, skipper of the IMOCA Malizia-Seaexplorer which will be on the start of the next Vendée Globe (10 th November 2024). He was accompanied by YCM Vice-President and founder of Team Malizia, Pierre Casiraghi, who had come to meet the children in the YCM’s Sports Section and share with them their passion for sailing.   

Exploration the link  

Organised in partnership with The Explorers Club of New York as a Day of Exploration, the 13 th Environmental Symposium La Belle Classe Superyachts saw a dozen renowned explorers take the stage to speak. “ It is important to have them here as we need to know more about the planet and its oceans and appreciate just how beautiful it is. If we want to protect something, having an indepth knowledge of it is fundamental,” believes YCM General Secretary Bernard d’Alessandri.   

“ To be a good explorer, you have to be humble,” said American Victor Vescovo from the outset. Known for having dived to the deepest depths of the oceans, he is one of a handful to have tasted the exhilaration of the seas alongside explorers Josh Gates, Barry Clifford, Carl Allen , Captain Maiwenn Beadle , Nico Vincent and the artist James Prosek who also made the trip. “ The Club shares a rich history with Monaco ,” began Richard Garriott , President of The Explorers Club of New York of which HSH Prince Albert II is a member of the Board of Directors. “ In the wake of Prince Albert I, several generations of the Grimaldi family have been members of the Club and flown its flag in the field during expeditions and won its highest distinctions. Our members may have walked on the moon and the summit of Mount Everest, but our roots are firmly anchored in the ocean”.

A commitment with no limits  

“ When it comes to love, you don’t count the cost” so the saying goes. And many of these explorers are the perfect interpretation of it as demonstrated by Emmanuelle and Ghislain Bardout, the couple behind the Under The Pole expeditions. “ We sold everything we owned to buy our expedition boat” with the goal being to introduce the public to the underwater world, gain better knowledge of the ocean and above all to raise awareness of the urgent need to protect it. “ Fishing is one of the biggest threats,” says Rachel Graham who works with traditional fishermen and sector-specific partners in several tropical countries to identify and roll out win-win solutions that reconcile the wellbeing of coastal communities with sustainable use of resources, and conservation of threatened marine wildlife and habitats critical to their survival. Meeting local people is key like Tommy Allen who now focuses his attention on building new types of boat, “ no matter what you work on, or what we find, too often we forget the human factor. The indigenous populations that I meet embody ecology, they are the environment”.  

Knowledge key to protection  

According to Nina Jensen , CEO of REV Ocean, the largest research expedition vessel (REV) currently under construction, which will be available to scientists, NGOS, policy makers, innovators, engineers and stakeholders in the maritime sector, “ Less than 10% of the oceans have been explored. The idea with this boat is to save life in the oceans and it’s not just about the boat but also the people on board”.  

Many have also witnessed rare discoveries, at sea and in space. “ We have collected numerous samples that allow us to find out the chemical composition of certain rocks on Mars,” said scientist, Nina Lanza , Space and Planetary Team Leader in Space and Space Remote Sensing and Data Science (ISR-6) at the Los Alamos National Laboratory, “ I really think exploration is a leap of the imagination”. Explorers share with scientists the ability to observe, analyse and listen to the nature that surrounds them. “ We have lost the ability to listen to nature because we have developed another way of communicating with language. At the moment we are disconnected from nature,” said Michel André , professor, Bioacoustician and Director of Applied Bioacoustics at the Technical University of Catalonia Barcelonatech (UPC).  

Explorers of extremes, they are used to dealing with the unknown. “ Panic paralyses but fear is a thermometer that keeps you alert,” continued the legendary American astronaut, Kathy Sullivan . Their passion pushes them to go beyond the limits of what is possible. “ Exploration is not just about going into the unknown, it is also about exploring a better quality of life,” concluded Bertrand Piccard who this year celebrates the 25 th anniversary of his nonstop round the world trip in a balloon. “ The impossible must be achieved. Every time we have a choice to make we are going into the unknown”.

4 th YCM Explorer Awards by La Belle Classe Superyachts : owners in the spotlight  

The YCM Explorer Awards by La Belle Classe Superyachts ended the day. Since 2019 the ceremony has been recognising owners who stand out for their commitment to protecting the marine environment, be it in the design of their yacht or how they use it. Awarded by a jury of professionals there are four awards, Technology & Innovation, Science & Discovery, Adventure & Environmental Ethics and a special Coup de Coeur award. They were presented by YCM President HSH Prince Albert II, alongside Richard Wiese, President Emeritus of The Explorers Club, Mike Horn and Bertrand Piccard.  

“ They are acutely aware of the environment and are playing, and will play, a crucial role in marine exploration by providing their invaluable support to scientists and local communities ,” said HSH Prince Albert II.  

  • S/Y Cachalote (25m) won the Technology & Innovation category and earned the 4-star ‘Superior Standard’ rating of the SEA Index ® . Launched 2020 by YCM and Credit Suisse, this reference has become essential for assessing superyachts’ CO2 emissions, providing invaluable support for owners committed to more responsible yachting.   
  • M/Y Archimedes (68m) won the Science & Discovery prize.  
  • M/Y Gigi (49m) was recognised in the Adventure & Environmental Ethics category.  
  • The special Coup de cœur prize went to M/V Latitude (47m) whose captain Sean Meagher is a member of the YCM’s Captains’ Club and The Explorers Club.

As the Sovereign concluded in his speech, “ Together, let us commit to protecting our oceans and working towards a sustainable future for our planet. It is a collective responsibility, a duty we have to our children and future generations ”.
