At the Monaco Classic Week elegance takes the sea with Allegra Gucci and Lia Riva

Sailors hoist the sails during a race at Classic Week on September, 16, 2023 in Monaco.

MONACO, Sept. 18, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Elegance is the word while visiting the Monaco Classic Week. Everything at this event dedicated to heritage yachting talks about the ‘art de vivre la mer’, the Yacht Club de Monaco’s motto which contains appreciation and passion for the sea.The same values are shared by Allegra Gucci and her ‘Creole’. The three masters schooner designed by Charles Nicholson and built in Camper & Nicholson in 1927 doesn’t go unseen. In the Eighties she caught the eye of Maurizio Gucci who fell in love with her. And the rest is history. “The Creole came into our family for the passion that my father had for sailing and, especially, when he saw the Creole, that at the time was not really in a perfect condition, I would say more or less a wreck, he fell in love with her lines because she’s absolutely magnifique. He then decided to start this massive restoration, which lasted 4-5 years and after that we can say the Creole has seen a new life where she started sailing for the whole Mediterranean and the world, besides taking part and at the Classic Week of course,” explains Allegra Gucci. Allegra is Maurizio Gucci and Patrizia Reggiani’s daughter and owner of the over 65-meter long classic boat. The Creole has a double planking hull, a surface of sailing that is a thousand square meters and a draft of 5 meters and a half. Alongside the impressive schooner there are 130 boats, including some forty classic sailing yachts, around sixty vintage motorboats and a 20-strong fleet of Dinghy 12’, moored at the YCM Marina for the event. “These wonderful boats are the result of the passion of the owner and it’s like keeping on the heritage,” adds Allegra Gucci.

When thinking about elegance at sea the mind immediately runs to the Italian shipyard established in Sarnico, Riva. At the Classic Week an exceptional fleet of around thirty Rivas, mahogany wooden runabouts of the 1950s, went on display. “The bond between Riva and Montecarlo goes a long way back in time. Since my father came here and with Prince Ranieri they decided to dug a tunnel into the rock and to build floating pontoons in the beautiful bay of Port Hercules,” says Lia Riva, daughter of shipyard founder Carlo. A roaring armada of vintage motorboats, led by the Riva family’s ‘Lipicar’,criss-crossed the bay and sailed close to the shore, much to the pleasure of spectators. “Every two years the Yacht Club organizes the Classic Week. Since this year is the centenary of the birth of Prince Ranieri, the Rivas are ‘à l’ honneur’, as they say here, precisely because they were the boats used by Ranieri himself and his family. We have some beautiful photos all onboard the Aquarama, the Tritone, which they owned, and they also had a smaller boat, a Super Florida,” she recalls. Considered pure gems in the yachting world, the 60 motorboats deployed all their charms under blue skies and sunshine, their meticulous varnish glinting in the light during a memorable outing as they wove their way through the sailing yachts.

At the Monaco Classic Week JFK’s ‘Floating White House’ goes on display

At the Monaco Classic Week JFK’s ‘Floating White House’ goes on display

At the Monaco Classic Week JFK’s ‘Floating White House’ goes on display

MONACO, Sept. 18, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — It’s time for Classic Week at the Yacht Club de Monaco. Among 130 vintage boats, including sailing yachts and motoryachts, moored at the YCM marina until 16th September, the Manitou catches the eye of many. The fascinating sailboat, approximately 18 meters long, hosted John Fitzgerald Kennedy, its most famous owner, at the helm. Nicknamed ‘The Floating White House’, it was equipped with the latest technology to keep the communication going with the presidential office but also, allegedly, with the Kremlin. The wooden interiors, with a small fireplace, a large cabin and the famous bath, hidden by two teak doors, are the main features of the boat. Legend has it Marilyn Monroe also took baths on board while Kennedy spent a lot of time on the Manitou yacht not only working but also in company of family and friends. A photo of him with Jackie Kennedy and Giovanni and Marella Agnelli is still displayed below deck. The history of the sailing yacht dates back to 1937 when the racing car driver James Lowe commissioned it from the famous studio of naval architects Sparkman & Stephens. The Manitou won the Mackinac race in 1938, from Chicago to Lake Michigan, and then won again 1940-41. “In 1956 the boat was donated to the US Navy and JFK sent his attaché to find a boat that would serve the presidential purpose and he found the Manitou. At this point it is said that Marilyn Monroe was also among the guests on the boat. So both Jacqueline Kennedy and Marilyn would board the sailing ship. And the latter, according to the rumors, would have used the tub located below deck but, clearly, we are not sure,” recalls Hamish Easton, current owner of the sailing ship who, however, prefers to be defined as the ‘guardian’ of the vessel. “You never really own such a thing but you can only keep it in custody for a while waiting to entrust it to whoever comes after,” he adds. Now the Manitou is ‘enjoying retirement’ at the port of Cannes by taking part in 6-10 historic regattas a year.

Moving on to motorboats, the 1908 ‘Triton’ deserves a special mention. “It is a steam launched engine which is very comfortable to run because you have no noise, no odor and you have a really long run distance with just a few liters of gasoline. We also have a full equipped kitchen on it,” explains Michael Hoelzl, project manager of Autoboote Berlin. The historical shipyard, founded by Carsten Kling, mainly restores pre-world war and pre-I world war boats. Alongside comes the ‘Wild Cat’ a 1923 powerboat is Rolls-Royce engined with 27 liters of displacement and 650 horsepower. “There’s is a very interesting tendency which started around 10-15 years ago and now we actually only have historical boats and we change from combustion to electric or if the client to hybrid electric,” Hoelzl adds.

Impressive while walking on the quay is the Mariska (1908). It is one of the last four classic 15-meter class yachts still sailing, along with Tuiga, The Lady Anne (1912) and Hispania (1909), which compete mainly in Mediterranean regattas, “The Mariska is a 15 meter, one of the most famous classes in Europe and I am from the Manhattan Yacht Club, in New York Harbour. We’ve flown over this regatta. We’ve raced at the Monaco Classic Week many times but this is the first time racing on a 15 meter. It’s so beautiful and a joy for us to come here and race this kind of boats,” says Michal Fortenbaugh, commodore of the Manhattan Yacht Club.

Forward Faster Initiative to accelerate private sector action to reach SDGs

Over 130 companies have already joined the new UN Global Compact Forward Faster initiative to accelerate private sector progress on the Sustainable Development Goals

New York, United States of America, Sept. 18, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — The United Nations Global Compact, the world’s largest corporate sustainability initiative, launched Forward Faster today to accelerate private sector action at the pace and scale needed to deliver on the 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and meet the 2030 Agenda. Forward Faster calls on business leaders everywhere to take measurable, credible and ambitious action in five areas — gender equality, climate action, living wage, water resilience and finance & investment — that have the power to accelerate progress across all SDGs where the private sector can collectively make the biggest, fastest impact by 2030.

The SDG Progress Report released earlier this year by UN Secretary-General António Guterres, showed that just 15 percent of the Sustainable Development Goal targets are on track, progress on 48 percent is weak and insufficient and progress has stalled or gone into reverse on 37 percent of the SDGs.

Speaking about the new initiative, Sanda Ojiambo, CEO and Executive Director of the UN Global Compact said:

“Now more than ever companies are taking action on sustainability, but there’s still not enough progress towards meeting the 2030 Agenda. Companies must be more ambitious and put words into action. Forward Faster is here to guide companies on where they can make the biggest, fastest impact for 2030.”

Companies who sign up to the initiative, will be asked to commit to nine targets — at least one of the selected targets from the five action areas in:

  • Gender Equality
    • Equal representation, participation and leadership across all levels of management by 2030.
    • Equal pay for work of equal value by 2030.
  • Climate Action
    • Set corporate science-based net-zero emissions reductions targets in line with a 1.5°C pathway, with the goal of halving global emissions by 2030 and reaching net-zero by 2050 at the latest.
    • Contribute to a just transition by taking concrete actions that address social impacts of climate change mitigation and adaptation measures in partnership with actors such as workers, unions, communities and suppliers.
  • Living Wage
    • 100 percent of employees across the organization earn a living wage by 2030.
    • Establish a joint action plan(s) with contractors, supply chain partners and other key stakeholders to work towards achieving living wages and/or living incomes with measurable and time-bound milestones.
  • Water Resilience
    • Build water resilience across global operations and supply chains and join hands to achieve collective positive water impact in at least 100 vulnerable prioritized water basins by 2030.
  • Finance & Investment
    • Align corporate investment — to the fullest extent possible — with SDG policies and strategies, and set targets, track and report on the amount and proportion of such SDG investments.

More than 130 companies are already taking action amongst the five action areas, and the list of companies committed to Forward Faster is expected to increase significantly. More than 20 organizations agreed to serve as supporters across the different action areas of the initiative.

(LEAD) S. Korean rookie Kim Seong-hyeon finishes runner-up at PGA Tour fall event

South Korean rookie Kim Seong-hyeon finished in second place in the first stop of the annual PGA Tour fall series.

Kim shot 19-under 269 to take the runner-up spot at the Fortinet Championship at Silverado Resort’s North Course in Napa, California, on Sunday (local time), finishing two strokes behind the winner, Sahith Theegala of the United States.

This was Kim’s best performance on the PGA Tour and only his second career top-10 finish after a fourth-place showing at the Shriners Children’s Open in October 2022.

In 29 events after that, Kim had missed 12 cuts without a top-10 performance.

The FedEx Cup Fall will feature seven tournaments, with only those who finished outside the top 50 in FedEx Cup points at the end of the playoffs last month eligible to collect points in the fall events.

At the end of the fall tournaments, golfers inside the top 125 in points will earn their PGA Tour cards for next year.

Kim started the week in 83rd place, and the runner-up in Napa should be able to keep him inside the top 125.

Kim shot in the 60s in all four rounds, with Theegala being the only other player to achieve that feat at the Fortinet Championship. Kim opened with a seven-under 65, and followed up with rounds of 67, 69 and 68.

In the final round, Kim had parred his first nine holes and picked up four birdies on the back nine.

“This has been the longest week of my career,” Kim said afterward. “I tried to stay tough mentally and keep positive thoughts in my mind. I played the way I wanted to play through the end, and I am satisfied with the result.”

Kim played the third round with former world No. 1 Justin Thomas, a two-time major champion. Kim admitted to feeling some nerves when he found out he was paired with the American star. Thomas finished in fifth place at 15-under but shot a 65, four strokes better than Kim, in the third round.

“After playing the first couple of holes, I was able to relax and get into my own pace,” Kim said. “Justin complimented me on some of my shots. He’s such a great player, and I could see how someone like him is in a different class than the other guys. I will try hard to catch up.”

Kim, who turned 25 on Sunday, first earned his PGA Tour membership last year by finishing 12th in the points standings during the regular season of the developmental Korn Ferry Tour. After each season, the top 25 players in the Korn Ferry Tour points grab their PGA Tour cards for the following campaign. Kim was one of two South Koreans to reach the big tour via that route this fall, joining former PGA Tour veteran An Byeong-hun. Kim was also the 2022 Korn Ferry Tour’s Rookie of the Year.
