A Maritime Legacy

Vela Clàssica Barcelona – A Tribute to Maritime Heritage

From 8 – 13 July 2025, Barcelona’s stunning coastline will once again host the prestigious Vela Clàssica Barcelona, one of the classic sailing world’s most celebrated events. This year, the regatta shines with added prestige, following the recent staging of the 37th America’s Cup—a union that beautifully merges historical tradition with contemporary spirit.

Organized by the Real Club Náutico de Barcelona, this regatta showcases a remarkable fleet of classic sailing yachts like Hallowe’en, Mariska, or Sky. From centuries-old wooden vessels to the iconic 12mR class from the America’s Cup era that once ruled the waves, yachts like Kookaburra II, French Kiss, and Kiwi Magic bring maritime history alive against Barcelona’s architectural wonders, creating a strikingly beautiful contrast.

With its unique blend of history and innovation and the unmatched charm of a coastal city on the Costa Brava, Barcelona provides a breathtaking stage for the Vela Clàssica. As the only European metropolis hosting such a regatta, Barcelona uniquely combines the timeless elegance of classic yachts with the vibrant energy of city life.

A timeless Masterpiece: Classic Sailing Yacht SKY
Discover the yacht SKY, a paragon of British craftsmanship crafted in 1890 by the shipyard Thetis Ware in the United Kingdom. As the oldest yacht competing in classic regattas, she reflects a storied past melded with modern amenities. Her oak hull and sweeping teak decks have witnessed the sea’s ever-changing tides, just as they have witnessed the laughter and conversations of many guests over more than 130 years. With space for twelve, SKY offers a sanctuary on the waves for those who appreciate the fusion of classic design with contemporary comforts.


Sailing with a Star

SKY’s guest book reads like a who’s who of the elite, once gracing silver screen siren Brigitte Bardot, with its opulence. Her passage aboard SKY has left an indelible mark, blending Hollywood glamour with nautical prestige. Today, guests can walk the same decks and bask in the same luxurious ambience that once hosted this star, all while making their own memories against the backdrop of the Azure Mediterranean.


A Journey Through Maritime History

SKY’s meticulous restoration has ensured that her spirit sails on. A professional crew ensures smooth sailing, whether you’re cutting through the waves in a regatta or cruising the Riviera at leisure. SKY is more than a vessel; she’s an experience, an invitation to partake in the elegance of yachting’s golden age. As Noblesse Yachts now offer SKY for charter, seize the opportunity to be part of the legendary regattas in the Mediterranean sea, and perhaps, just perhaps, capture the spirit of her famed guests for your own sea tale.

Sailing Heritage

SKY, a classic 1890 gaff-rigged yawl, marries historical elegance with modern luxury. Built by Thetis Ware in the UK, she features an oak hull, teak decks, and mahogany interiors across 85 feet. Accommodating 12 guests for regattas and cruising and 4 guests overnight, SKY sails at 7.5 knots, equipped for both regattas and leisurely cruises, blending tradition with contemporary navigation.
Notably, SKY holds the distinction of being the oldest yacht participating in classic regattas, showcasing her timeless allure and enduring legacy on the seas.
