J Class sailing yacht Shamrock V sailing in the bay of Saint Tropez. After an intense day out on the racecourse during the 2012 Voles de Saint Tropez, we were heading towards the harbor. The sea flattened and the wind dropped, we passed by to leeward of Shamrock V on of the few J Class yachts.

How long will it take until we can go back to the Mediterranean and enjoy our passion for these yachts? In the meantime, let’s dream a bit. We were in Saint Tropez in September 2019. The world was “normal,” nobody expected anything to happen after a beautiful day out on the sea on the way back in the Gulf of Saint Tropez.
