Whether seasoned racers, sailors with disabilities, or able-bodied participants, everyone comes together on the Monegasque waters for the Navicap Challenge – Elena Sivoldaeva Trophy, organized by the Yacht Club de Monaco. This event provides specially adapted boats, enabling all competitors to take part regardless of their physical challenges. Through the Navicap Challenge project, the Y.C.M. demonstrates that sailing is a universal sport, capable of bringing people from all backgrounds together while highlighting the importance of accessibility and equal opportunities in the world of yachting.
Since 2022, and thanks to the generosity of Mrs. Sivoldaeva, a donor member, the Y.C.M. has strengthened its fleet with the addition of an AIRA 22, three Hansa 303 boats, and an Echo 90. One of these Hansa 303s was funded with the support of the Rotary Club of Monaco, further contributing to the development of inclusive sailing.
To support aspiring sailors, three coaches from the Sports Section have undergone specialized training, allowing them to work alongside young assistant instructors in guiding newcomers on the water. This commitment reflects the Y.C.M.’s determination to expand and promote inclusive sailing within the Club.
Young, experienced, able-bodied or disabled, all profiles are represented on this event, which aims to offer an ideal regatta setting where exchange is the order of the day.
