The Société Nautique de Saint-Tropez, with the help of the "Smeralda 888" association, is organizing the 18th edition of the Coupe de l'Hippocampe.

Created in 2006, this invitation-only event is open to Monaco-based "Smeralda 888" yachts (approx. 9m).

With the participation of some of the world's top sailing competitors, the regatta is a spicy affair, taking place over three days in the Gulf of Saint-Tropez. Around ten sailboats will take part.
