Supersized yachts aside, sustainable initiatives headline this year's Monaco Yacht Show
Every September, all sails head to the Monaco Yacht Show—an annual gathering of superyachts from the world’s best shipyards. "It comes at the end of the Mediterranean charter season and is undisputedly the most important show on the calendar especially for megayachts," says Paolo Casani, Group Chief Executive Officer of Camper & Nicholsons.
Superyachts of all stripes—125 in total—took their place in the sun at the glamorous principality for the show's 29th edition. "This year's fleet is the most impressive we’ve seen in terms of tonnage and worth. There's about 4 billion euro floating at the port right now," says Gaëlle Tallarida, Managing Director of the Monaco Yacht Show. She added that the median length of yachts this year is almost 50 metres and the average price is around 38 million.
