MONACO’S FAMOUS HISTORIC YACHTS AND MORE

The “Pacha III” looks almost “tiny” with its 36 meters, but the timeless beauty is still a place of honor in the harbor. After all, it belongs to the oldest sister of Prince Albert II, Princess Caroline . Although it is not one of the largest luxury yachts in the Principality of Monaco, it is often the center of interest. Dozens of paparazzi photos show Caroline of Hanover and her Casiraghi sprouts along with partners and friends on the legendary boat. Could she say, the 79-year-old “Pacha III” would have something to say. The yacht was bought just before the death of Caroline’s second husband, Stefano Casiraghi, son to a prominent Italian family, who died in an off-shore crash in October 1990 off the coast of Saint Jean Cap Ferrat, near Monaco. Since then “Pacha III” has a special meaning for Princess Caroline and her family. In the year 2000 Stefano‘s mother, Fernanda Casiraghi-Biffi, was awarded the Foglio Italiano of Montecarlo – Foglio d’Oro Prize for her merits in charity events and as President of Engeco SAM, (now owned by Pizzarotti &C S.P.A.) a very important building company in the Principality. It is an habit to the Monaco family to have composed names yachts: Princes Rainier and Grace used to own “Stalca” St (ephanie) Al (bert) Ca (roline) a yacht, after naming Albercaro Alber (t) and Caro (line) their first yacht. Princess Stephanie named her yacht “Louine”, of course after her two first kids, Lou (is) and (Paul) ine . In the XIX and XX centuries, Prince Albert I , great-great-grandfather of Albert II, owned four, increasingly impressive research yachts: Hirondelle, Hirondelle I, Princess Alice and Princesse Alice I, named after his second beloved wife, the American-born Alice Heine , Duchess of Richelieu . Back to the Caroline and Stefano’s boat, previously she already had several names such as Briseis, Cardigrae, Priamar and Arlette II. The name “Pacha III” is made up of the initials of their three children Pierre, Andrea and Charlotte together. Pacha , means P (ierre) A (ndrea) Cha (rlotte). Also, it is a nice coincidence that the initial of Alexandra, the Caroline and Ernst August Hanover ‘s daughter, is the last letter of Pacha… Caroline had to add the “III” because there existed already a Pacha, Pacha I and a Pacha II. She was originally built in 1936 by the British shipyard Camper & Nicholson in Southampton. Her dark blue steel hull is slender 5.60 meters wide and has a draft of 2.50 meters. On board nine guests can be accommodated by seven crew members. The Grimaldi Clan uses the yacht regularly for trips in the Mediterranean. Now Caroline’s children are increasingly using the boat. So also recently newlewds Pierre Casiraghi and noblewoman Beatrice Borromeo .

Probably no other family of rulers of Europe can be seen under the media’s observation, like the Monegasque princes’ house. The millenarian history of the Grimaldis is at least as interesting as their current glamorous performances. Fast boats and beautiful women, international jet set, the Grimaldi Forum Congress Centre, the Prince’s committment to sustainability and once a year Formula 1 Grand Prix , the Rose and the Red Cross Gala, all this an much more is Monaco. But what would the dwarf state on the Côte d’Azur be without the Grimaldis? The princely family is probably the best PR machine for their country. Whether it’s the joy of the world or the catastrophe – (the Grimaldi Royal House, founded in 1297, is the oldest in Europe) the world is there live. The Grimaldis now land regularly on the covers of the boulevard and lifestyle media. The first attention is given to the first-born daughter Caroline (* 1957). The failure of their first and later annullated marriage to much older real estate agent Philippe Junot was also in the limelight as the accidental death of her second husband Stefano Casiraghi . Her last marriage to Ernst August Prinz of Hanover , to which she owes the title of Caroline Prinzessin from Hanover, always provides grateful material for the Yellow Press. Her younger sister, Stéphanie (* 1965), also contributed a lot to bringing the family back into the flash of lightning. Meanwhile the sisters have calmed down. Both engage in social projects; Caroline has three grandchildren, Stéphanie got three children from two marriages. HSH Albert II is now in the center of interest. No wonder he is a prince, he has a beautiful wife – and adorable twins.

Well, now I invite you to continue navigating the website and make a Graceful tour in the Galapagos with the Grace Yatch! Although M/Y Grace looks as young and chic today as the princess who honeymooned aboard her in the 1950s, she is nonetheless what the French call “une femme d’un certain age”: born in 1928, just before The Crash silenced the Roaring Twenties, she’s surrendered none of her youth’s glamour to the scars and wrinkles of a gallant life, including a stint chasing submarines during World War II. Combat aged on her, but benefactors like Aristotle Onassis, John Issa, and Prince Rainier ensured she was kept in the style to which she was accustomed. Now, as the M/Y Grace, she plies the waters of the Galapagos Islands, once again the elegant hostess to carefree, adventurous, perfect parties. M/Y Grace bore many names since Santiago Soulas, an Argentinean, commissioned her in Southampton. She weighed 298 tons, was 147 feet long, with a 23-foot beam and a draft of 12 feet. Soulas kept her four years before selling her to Zarch Couyoumbian, a Greek gentleman who named her Rion. In 1938, Sir George Tilley, chairman of the Prudential Insurance Co., acquired and enjoyed her until 1939, when the British conscripted her for the war effort. The Royal Navy – well-heeled in warships – needed smaller vessels for coastal patrols and snatched yachts from the Mediterranean and the Caribbean playgrounds. Rion found herself in a Tynemouth shipyard, stripped of her furnishings and paneling. She was strengthened to carry a 12-pound quick-firing gun on the forecastle, twin 40mm Oerlikons alongside the bridge and a rack on the stern holding eight 300 lb. depth charges. The corporate crew quarters were removed and hammock-hooks were welded to the deck. The forward suite became the operations and sonar room, another suite became the radio room, and the aft suite was an ammunition magazine. On October 21, 1939, she joined the Royal Navy with a crew of 20 under the command of Lt. T. Brydon, RNVR. She and 15 other vessels patrolled the entrances to the Solent and along the Isle of Wight: calm waters with the Germans focused on the skies.

On patrol off the Nab Tower, however, a Dornier 110 returning from a bombing raid stafed Rion. She took some damage to her superstructure but suffered no casualties. On May 26, 1940, during Operation Dynamo, Rion was dispatched to the beaches of Dunkirk to evacuate the British Expeditionary Force. She made three 39-mile runs from Dunkirk to Dover, each time delivering 300 soldiers. On her third run, a near-miss from a bomb off her starboard bow killed 14 soldiers and one sailor and left shrapnel holes in the hull. Repaired in Portsmouth, she resumed duty in the channels from Portsmouth to Southampton. Rion’s finest hour came on November 22, 1940 with a daring nighttime capture. She was patrolling south of the Isle of Wight with HMS Shemara and HMS Valera. At 2:44 a.m. radar contact was obtained 10 miles southwest. Lt. Brydon ordered pursuit and discovered a German E-boat floundering in the swells, and Rion and Shemara opened fire from astern of the boat. The Germans returned small-arms fire but surrendered when a shell from Rion hit her bridge. Rion escorted the E-Boat to the Portsmouth Harbour naval base. Rion had not finished yet: she discovered a submarine on the night of March 23, 1941, and made numerous depth charge runs, but the large oil slick seen at dawn was insufficient evidence to confirm that Rion had destroyed the U-boat. By June 3rd, Rion’s port engine had been crippled, and she was decommissioned for three months before returning to duty: stripped of armaments and refitted with three-tier bunks and a red cross painted on her sides and upper deck, she became an annex to the Royal Navy Hospital. Here she remained until the war’s end, when she was rechristened HMS Noir. On October 1945 she was decommissioned and 17 months later she arrived at her original builders—Southampton’s Camper & Nicholson—for restoration. On September 16, 1947 she was returned to Sir George Tilley. Upon Sir George’s death in 1951, Aristotle Onassis ’ charter firm acquired HMS Noir and renamed her Arion. Two years later, the yacht became property of Prince Rainier and Princess Grace of Monaco as a wedding gift from Aristotle Onassis.

Over the course of the next 2 years the yacht was refitted to embark her new era as one of the most elegant and tasteful Galapagos Cruise yachts to sail the enchanted Galapagos Islands. The cabins are in the Sun Deck, the top-most deck of the yacht where one can find plenty of reclinable lounge chairs for sunbathing or for reading in the open air. The Albert Deck has 2 Master Suites and 2 Twin Suites with ocean-view windows. The captain’s bridge, the al-fresco lounge and al-fresco bar are also located on this deck. The Carolina Deck is fitted with 5 Premium Staterooms (double and twin) with ocean-view port-holes. The Monaco Deck is the main deck of the yacht with the interior dining room, the reception area and the main lounge. On the outside of this deck there are the al-fresco dining area, the stern resting area and the jacuzzi. And… A FABERGE IMPERIAL EGG EMBODIES A FABULOUS LUXURY YACHT FULL OF HISTORY: THE STANDART YACHT

MOSCOW. Last but not least, and exort ing you to read the Fabergé Eggs history in the CULTURE & MONACO WEALTHS wish to report a curiosity about fabolous luxury yachts , with the description of the Fabergé Standart Yacht Leaf Egg . The “Standart 1909” is a transparent hollowed-out rock crystal egg, mounted horizontally, with a gold band with inlaid leaves of green enamel and small diamonds marking the separation point between upper and lower halves, which bears the inscription “Standart 1909”. The surprise is a golden replica of the Imperial Yacht , the Standart Yacht, made of gold and platinum , and coated in vitreous enamel . The model rests on a carved bed of crystal representing the ocean, but can be removed from the egg.

The c5,500 ton Standart was commissioned by Tsar Alexander III in Copenhagen . It was launched in 1895 and was 116 meters long, which made it the largest yacht in the world at that time. Outfitted with ornate fixtures, including mahogany paneling, crystal chandeliers, and other amenities (including a stable with a cow to provide the imperial children with fresh milk) it was a floating palace for the Russian Imperial Family for their vacations in the Baltic Sea. The Russian Imperial Family was vacationing on the Standart during the summer of 1914, when they received the news of the aassassination of Archduke Franz Ferdinand, in Sarajevo, marking the start of World War I . After the Russian Revolution the ship was placed in drydock until 1936, when she was converted to a minelayer. During World War she played a significant role in the defence of Leningrad.

Further €2M price drop on 62m Codecasa motor yacht Moneikos

A further €2,000,000 price drop has been announced on the 62-metre Moneikos, with Royal Yacht International 's Annalisa Mastella and Manuele Thiella acting as central agents.

Moneikos , which was built in steel and aluminium by Italian builder Codecasa in 2006, has been meticulously maintained since she was delivered, with only one owner who has used her privately. She was refitted in 2018 and again in 2020.

Moneikos comfortably accommodates a party of 16 in eight staterooms and benefits from a lift connecting all decks. Unusually, the owner’s suite is on the upper deck, immediately beneath the sundeck, and offers spectacular 180° panoramic views. This suite offers privacy for family life and can be enjoyed autonomously from the rest of the vessel.

A double and two twin guest cabins are located forward on the main deck, two of which can be converted into a full-beam VIP suite. The second guest zone comprises two double and two twin spacious cabins, at lower deck level. 

Designed by Studio Dedalo, the interior is timeless with sumptuous seating creating an inviting and comfortable atmosphere. Precious woods, such as dark African wenge for the floors and light maple on the bulkheads, add warmth. Ceilings are hand lacquered.

Moneikos ' exterior, designed by Della Role , is characterised by dark strips that conceal vast dark-tinted rectangular windows and punctuate the levels of the superstructure. The sundeck is mostly covered, giving more internal volume and less of an emphasis on sunbathing.

A pair of 2,450hp Caterpillar 3516Bs give this yacht for sale a top speed of 17.5 knots and a cruising speed of 15 knots. Naiad zero-speed stabilisers keep her steady underway and at rest. At economical cruising speed, Moneikos ' range is an impressive 6,000 nautical miles.

Moneikos ' asking price is now €27,890,000 (VAT paid) and will be available to view at the Monaco Yacht Show.

Formula 1 2023: Monaco GP CIRCUIT DE MONACO, MONACO – MAY 28: Conor McGregor during the Monaco GP at Circuit de Monaco on Sunday May 28, 2023 in Monte Carlo, Monaco. Photo by Simon Galloway / LAT Images Images GP2306_145417SMG_5316

Conor McGregor's antics at Monaco GP—entertaining or just plain embarrassing for the UFC star?

Conor McGregor is already notorious for his antics inside and outside the octagon even though he is a legendary star in the UFC promotion . A few days ago, he faced a strong jibe from Ali Abdelaziz who mocked his recent claim of standing as a presidential candidate for Ireland. Now the veteran manager targeted ‘The Notorious’ on X and said “@TheNotoriousMMA, tell the people why you got kicked out of Monaco and why the real reason you’re not fighting.” Does the Monaco thing ring any bells?

Do you remember McGregor once went to the Monaco Grand Prix in 2023? If not then let us jog our memories, shall we? So, ‘ The Notorious’ has gone to the Monaco Grand Prix two years in a row. The first time he docked his multi-million dollar Lamborghini Yacht sent fans into a frenzy. The next time he increased that frenzy by buying something extravagant. On top of that, something else happened in the 2023 Monaco Grand Prix which made him the spotlight.

Conor McGregor’s signature style of arrival at the Mocano GP

‘Mystic Mac’ is a man of style as much as he is a man of strength. He might be injured, drunk, or even acting in a Hollywood movie, but he is always in style. The 36-year-old did not disappoint the fans when it came to this, at the 2023 Monaco Grand Prix.  On 28th May 2023, Formula One reached Monaco for an amazing race at the Circuit de Monaco. Many celebrities were in attendance including Tom Holland, Neymar, Orlando Bloom, Maria Sharapova, and Conor McGregor. All the fans were vying for their idols while the UFC fans were searching for McGregor.

I don't care either way

Very soon a video surfaced of the former dualweight champion enjoying himself in Monaco as he was dancing throughout the venue. On top of that, he gave a grand entrance which was nothing short of royal when he came down from his luxurious yacht and appeared to support  Haas F1 on Saturday. ‘ The Notorious’  was watching the event from the deck of his jaw-dropping $3.5 million Lamborghini yacht. This isn’t just a normal boat; it’s a buoyant piece of wealth and luxury. With two plush bedrooms, 4,000 horsepower, and a huge speed of 70 miles per hour, it’s practically a mobile palace on water.

“It’s great to be here, I enjoyed this qualifying round…it’s great to be here at my first Grand Prix in Monaco. I’m honored. I’m here supporting Team Haas. It’s all to play for, there’s been a crash between the top two. Our car I believe is freshest…There’s a storm brewing and we’re excited about tomorrow. Let’s go, Team Haas,” McGregor said in an interview on the yacht. The crash that he referred to was between  Sergio Pérez of Red Bull and Carlos Sainz of Ferrari.

2023 was going to be a significant year for him because he was also supposed to start training for his return to the Octagon next year, after recovering from his surgery on the leg. Not only were the fans worried about this but they were also concerned after watching his odd reaction during the event in 2023.

What’s your perspective on:

Fans left worried as ‘ the notorious’ acts differently at the 2023 mocano gp..

The champion had left fans concerned after a video footage of him surfaced where his physique did not look like a UFC fighter’s . The former dual weight champion had insisted to his fans that he was gearing up for the return to the Octagon against Michael Chandler . However, at face value, it seemed like he was far away from the gym. In one particular video, he was seen dancing and enjoying the festivities which left many fans a little worried . According to the UFC buffs his physique was not up to the mark.

After this incident, it’s almost a year and McGregor was vying for his chance to return in December 2024. Luckily there has been an update from Dana White , and McGregor might fight in the first half of 2025. On top of that he shocked the fans again but this time by saying that he would not maintain the two-year-old tradition of going to the Monaco Grand Prix.

Why did Conor McGregor not attend the 2024 Mocano GP?

‘ T he Notorious’ was recently featured in a live stream by ‘ Duelbits ’ where he was earning some green bills while giving surprising news to the fighting community. One of those surprises was that he was not going to the Formula One race track in Monte Carlo on his superyacht in 2024. He was busy training for UFC 303 and his training camp would be clashing with the event date.

McGregor replied, “ Not this year. Not this season, I’m afraid. I had a great time last year. We won’t be going this season because we are in training camp.” He also revealed that his $3.2 million Lamborghini Yacht was in Majorca, a marvelous island in Spain. He also declared that he would be going to Las Vegas in two weeks. McGregor looked disappointed that he had to cancel his appearance but seemed excited for UFC 303. Little did he know that he was going to lose this chance in the Octagon again due to another injury.

For 2 consecutive years, he was seen attending the grand event and he even got slammed by the fans the second time. But this time the fighter had heard enough and he admitted that he was under intense training for the fight at UFC 303. Ultimately, he could not participate in this event as well due to a toe injury. Do you think given the circumstances he should have gone to the event?
