“Welcome drink on the Yacht Club lawn”
To get the 2015 meeting off to a great start, the Fountaine Pajot team decided to hold the opening evening event on the Porquerolles Yacht Club lawn, with all the participating owners, as well as the journalists present for the MY 37 sea trials.
With tapas, local drinks, and a beautiful sunset on the harbor, all that you could ask for to present the weekend program and get to know each other in a friendly atmosphere was united.
“The Neptune Rally”
The Fountaine Pajot team worked in collaboration with the Neptune Moteur Yachting magazine, the event’s partner, to organize the Neptune Rally. A magnificent day at sea was had by all. It was divided among cruising and mooring off some of the island’s stunning sites.
Departure: We headed westward in the direction of the first “Grand Ribaud” marker, and then the “Jaune Garde”, mooring on “La Plage d’Argent” (Silver beach) for lunch. We returned to sea at around 2 pm and headed eastward to the Mèdes rocks, the island’s quintessential historical rocky outcrop, then moored on Plage Notre Dame, considered to be Europe’s finest beach.
Mas du Langoustier evening
This day ended with a fabulous evening at the Mas du Langoustier, with a wine tasting by the Domaine de L’île organized by Sami Aburabi, followed by a dinner by the Chef Julien Le Goff and the Pâtissier Valter Ribiero.
To bring the evening to a close, our team showed a preview of the demo-film for the new Motor Yacht 37, before the prize giving to the five winners of the photo contest, in collaboration with the Neptune Yachting Moteur magazine, the VOLVO PENTA brand, PORTS TOULON PROVENCE, as well as the TINTAMAR V.I.P bag brand.
“A 3rd day of exploration and discovery”
- Exploration of the island with a tour of the Sainte Agathe Fort and the varied collections of the Porc Cros Botanical Conservatory of Porquerolles.
- Discovery of the new FOUNTAINE PAJOT MY 37.
- Exploration of the Domaine Perzinsky. Fountaine Pajot decided to offer a good musical evening to bring this meeting to a close. Sibongile Mbambo and his group of musicians offered a preview of his vocal performance for the “Jazz in Porquerolles” Festival organized by Frank Cassanti.
