Les Voiles de Saint-Tropez 2024 | Images Day 1

by Bow Caddy Media 30 Sep 22:14 UTC 28 September - 6 October 2024

On Day One of racing at Les Voiles de Saint-Tropez, the breeze built well during the afternoon for the Maxi Class, making for some tight racing in the two windward leeward divisions.

The Classics take to the water for their first races on Tuesday. What an amazing event this is, the classics all lined up stern-to on the harbour wall is extraordinary!
