Panerai Classic Yachts Challenge at Naples

The Panerai Classic Yachts Challenge, the leading international circuit for vintage and classic sailing craft, is making ready for the 2020 season, and is also pleased to announce the addition of a new host city and event to its ranks. Naples, one of the world’s most extraordinary cities, joins the PCYC’s Mediterranean circuit this year, with its legendary Bay providing the backdrop for the 11th edition of “Le Vele d’Epoca a Napoli” between June 2nd and 6th 2020.

This debut on the Panerai Classic Yachts Challenge international circuit is an acknowledgement of the Neapolitan regatta’s burgeoning status on the classic sailing scene. It also crowns the partnership between its organisers of the last decade, the exclusive Reale Yacht Club Canottieri Savoia and the Italian Navy’s Staff Sailing Office, and the Officine Panerai haute horlogerie brand, itself a sponsor of the circuit for the last nine years, thanks to its historic links to the sea and seafaring.
