look back at the start of the Monaco Yacht Show
One of the most important Yacht Shows in the world has made a comeback on the quays of Port Hercule.
This year, the show welcomes no less than 110 Superyachts and nearly 600 exhibitors, compared to 101 and 440 last year. From September 28 to October 1, the world of yachting meets in one place. Designers, engineers, designers, investors and buyers began to walk the aisles of the exhibition.
The first event was the traditional arrival of the Prince, yesterday at 2:30 p.m. The Sovereign has walked the floor of several superyachts to meet their owners but also Monegasque exhibitors. He also received a check for 51,000 euros for the Prince Albert II Foundation, donated by the organization of the event.
The main objective of the exhibition remains the sale of Superyachts and the discovery of new projects, but this edition reveals a whole new space. The Sustainability Hub, or Espace de Durabilité, was born in 2022, driven by the desire to make the environment more eco-responsible.
This new exhibition space has thus put itself at the forefront of the research and development of sustainable solutions in yachting. The initiative is supported by the Water Revolution Foundation, an organization whose objective is to reduce the ecological footprint of yachts.

This is an opportunity for Monegasque companies to highlight their initiatives in this area, such as Laneva Boat, a company specializing in the retrofitting of fuel engines into electric motors.
The Monaco Yacht Show is open until Saturday, from 10 a.m. to 6:30 p.m. (6 p.m. on Saturday).
