Training and knowledge-sharing aboard Tuiga

Transmission & Training

The Soul of a Living Monument

As the flagship of the Yacht Club de Monaco, Tuiga is far more than a racing yacht: she is the standard-bearer of the Principality’s values on the international stage. While her primary role is to represent Monegasque maritime excellence, she is also the guardian of a unique savoir-faire that she has a duty to pass on.

This mission of transmission is directly aligned with the philosophy of La Belle Classe Tradition.

Understanding the history of yachting

A preserved heritage

Sailing aboard Tuiga means going back to the roots of traditional yachting. This flagship offers the opportunity to see and understand the engineering of the past in order to better appreciate modern sailing.

The art of knots and splices:

Learning to work with noble materials such as hemp, teak and copper.

Hoisting the 411 m² of sail area requires perfect unity among the twenty crew members.

Values of transmission:

A bridge between generations:

Passing on excellence

The flagship is the natural meeting point between the experience of seasoned sailors and the energy of new talent.

Inspiring the younger generation:
