"We would like to thank Officine Panerai from the bottom of our heart for having been at our side and for sponsoring this unique Classic Yacht Regatta for so many years. The time has come, however, to set sail towards separate horizons, "stated Marco Poma Sporting Director of the Yacht Club Santo Stefano.

"The Yacht Club Santo Stefano is getting ready for the next edition of Argentario Sailing Week and the 2019 Notice of Race has just been published on our website: registration deadline is 15 April 2019. At this time we are talking with local authorities, institutions and businesses to ensure that the many classic yacht owners and crew members - who have made the Pilarella docks their home away from home for 10 years or more - will be able to enjoy an even better and warmer hospitality".

"Argentario Sailing Week will continue welcoming the Grandes Dames of the Sea in Porto Santo Stefano with unchanged passion and dedication. Classic Yachts are a part of our soul and we aim to continue promoting Beauty and Seamanship through this breathtaking event. Happy Holidays to all and Fair Winds into 2019. See you in June!" Poma concluded.

All participating yachts, pictures of the Grandes Dames racing in 2018, their designers and stories are described in detail on the event's Facebook page.
