On 4 December, over 200 guests attended the 3rd YCM Marina Party hosted by the Captains Club, including the famous explorer Mike Horn. It was an opportunity to promote the new Captains Charter which 48 Captains signed up to with enthusiasm. In keeping with the Yacht Club de Monaco’s naval traditions, the Charter is a promise by members of the Captains Club to transmit and perpetuate the values of yachting, instituted by Prince Albert I and developed by YCM President HSH Prince Albert II of Monaco.

The famous explorer Mike Horn, who wears the colours of the Yacht Club de Monaco in the most hostile regions of our planet, both on land and at sea, honoured this evening with his presence. It was a real surprise for the captains to be able to meet this adventurer, who took a short break of 24 hours in his Pole2Pole expedition.

Leaving Monaco in May 2016 on board his Pangaea sailing boat, he is currently on an unprecedented round the world trip, on multiple supports (on foot, and under sail and kite).
