The city of Marblehead (Massachusetts, USA), with its rich legacy associated with yachting and sailing – claimed by many to be the birthplace of the American Navy – is the ideal place to open the North American Circuit of the Panerai Classic Yachts Challenge, began in 2010.
Tradition, the exceptional port and the vicinity of a city such as Boston, have all made Marblehead one of New England’s sailing capitals. The first classic yacht regattas took place in the early ‘80s and today the Corinthian Classic Yacht Regatta has reached its 33rd year.
