DIARY ENTRY
Les Voiles de Saint-Tropez is a far cry from the other regattas.
The boats are the focus, without a doubt, but not the sailing of
them. It’s their mystique and allure that draws in the crowds
when they’re tied up in harbour. Throngs of tourists wearing the
same striped polo, bought for a small fortune, are packed like
festival-goers all craning their necks for a glimpse. It’s the image of
yachting culture that’s celebrated by the onlookers, and for the first
time all year it’s the rest of the world looking in on our fishbowl.
What a fishbowl we live in! M.O.
