Classic dinghies bring a touch of charm and tradition to Monaco Classic Week by the Yacht Club of Monaco. These small sailboats, often made of wood, are appreciated for their maneuverability and timeless elegance. Designed to sail close to the coast and take part in friendly regattas, dinghies offer a captivating spectacle on the water, where the skill of the sailors comes to the fore.

History & Heritage

Classic dinghies date back to a time when navigation was both an art and a science. These boats, often handcrafted by artisans, represent the skills and ingenuity of the shipbuilders of yesteryear. They are carefully restored and maintained to preserve their authenticity and original beauty.
