The Monaco Yacht Summit has quickly established itself as a major annual event in its own right, as it takes place again in 2017 alongside the world’s leading yacht show.
On September 26, the Monaco Yacht Summit welcomes new potential superyacht clients – or their representatives – to discuss the current issues about first-time charter or purchase of luxury yachts. For the 2017 Monaco Yacht Summit, a team of 11 experts has been selected to share their personal experience and unbiased insights on five topics.
Freddy Desplanques and Sophia Tutino will speak on Charters, Ken Judge, Robb Maass and Anouch Sedef will address the topic of Purchase, John Cook and Charles Dugas-Standish will examine the question of Crew, Stefano Pastrovich and Laura Pomponi will speak on Design, and Xavier Lamadrid and Jonathan Watson will address Management.
The subjects will be discussed in a casual ambiance to enable an effortless flow of dialogue, the organisers say.

The search of a vehicle stopped by police at the Monaco border in June 2014 revealed 145g of cannabis resin. A further search of the three young passengers revealed a bar of 100g of narcotics concealed in the posterior of one of the dealers.
At the opposition hearing to the original sentence of prison terms of six and five months, President Florestan Bellinzona questioned the two defendants about how they came to possess the drugs and who they were destined for. The versions differed. One claimed that he had bought the resin for 450 euros with the idea of sharing it with a friend. The other insisted that they had been together and had been offered two bars. And who for? "A friend who was taking part in the poker tournament in Monaco phoned us for a few doses," they say. So this is why you came to Monaco, deduced the magistrate. The main defendant refuted this. “I’m about to get married. My wife is expecting. I have changed …”
“Yet another version,” states the president, with disbelief. “You are putting it all on a third friend who was walking around with 145g of cannabis for resale?!”
The pair admitted to certain “arrangements” while in custody.
"They consume, buy in Nice to resell in Nice, concluded the prosecutor Cyrielle Colle. A large quantity of the cannabis was found in the rear of the first defendant, who denies the obvious and blames an absent friend. Sentenced to six months’ firm. A month less for the second. "
The court will follow the prosecution's demands to the letter.
