Setting course for the season — Cannes, Monaco, Saint-Tropez and Genoa, autumn 2026

From September to October, Boucan Chapacan follows the wake of the Mediterranean's great gatherings: Cannes, Monaco, Saint-Tropez and Genoa.

From September to October, the Mediterranean enters its finest season: a more golden light, a sea still warm, and the yachting world gathering again, from one port to the next. This year, Boucan Chapacan follows this wake — four ports of call, one same wish: to meet those who live the sea with passion.

Cannes Yachting Festival — the opening of the season

The Cannes Yachting Festival opens the season. From 8 to 13 September 2026, for its 49th edition, the Vieux-Port and Port Canto host Europe's largest in-water boat show. It is there, between the pontoons, that the finest bespoke stories often begin: a conversation, an idea, a wetsuit conceived for a use, a silhouette, a crew.

Monaco Yacht Show — the exceptional gathering

Next, a course for the Principality. From 23 to 26 September 2026, Port Hercule hosts the 35th edition of the Monaco Yacht Show, held under the high patronage of H.S.H. Prince Albert II of Monaco. The industry's most exclusive gathering, it brings together the world's finest superyachts — a setting equal to a house that never conceives anything in series.

Les Voiles de Saint-Tropez — sailing at its finest

Then the bay of Saint-Tropez comes alive. From 26 September to 4 October 2026, the 28th edition of Les Voiles de Saint-Tropez brings together on the same waters classic rigs, some a century old, alongside maxis and ultra-modern sailing yachts — among the finest hulls in the world. A celebration where tradition and modernity answer each other, true to its motto: the finest regattas on the water, the finest atmosphere ashore. The very spirit of the house.

Genoa International Boat Show — Italian excellence

Finally, a course for Liguria. From 1 to 6 October 2026, Genoa hosts the 66th edition of the Genoa International Boat Show, on the Waterfront di Levante. The historic capital of Italian nautical craft, the city celebrates a way of living the sea where rigour and elegance go hand in hand — values that are also my own.

Meeting me in person

At each of these ports of call, I will be listening: to discuss a project, present my materials and finishes, or imagine together the wetsuit — or the crew collection — that suits you. Every piece is born of a meeting; these gatherings are the finest of pretexts.

I also travel aboard your yacht, throughout the events, for measurements or a first conversation in complete discretion.

Preferred slots are limited. If you would like to meet me in Cannes, Monaco, Saint-Tropez or Genoa, write to me to arrange an appointment.
