With the arrival into the Monegasque fleet of Malizia II, an IMOCA 60’ (18.28m in length), the foiling adventure continues for Pierre Casiraghi. It’s a big project for the YCM Vice-President who is keen to develop Team Malizia alongside German sailor Boris Herrmann.

“It’s very much in line with the Club’s sailing policy,” notes Pierre Casiraghi. “Our goal is to get the young generation dreaming and inspire them with new vocations.” It is in this spirit that he wanted to launch the first Monaco Globe Series, a non-stop 1,300nm offshore race embracing some of the most emblematic marks for sailors in the Western Mediterranean.
