Every late September, several hundred sailing yachts, from century-old gaff-riggers to contemporary maxis, cross paths in the Gulf of Saint-Tropez before returning to port for ten days of racing organised by the Société Nautique de Saint-Tropez.
The influx of yachts it generates makes it, alongside the Giraglia, one of the yearly activity peaks for the professionals FairWinds lists at the Saint-Tropez stopover: provisioning, security, concierge services and rigging all run at full capacity.
