Classic Yacht Regattas

Race a genuine 1939 classic.

For sailors drawn to the rhythm and discipline of classic yacht racing, Peter still competes on the Mediterranean circuit — and occasionally has a place for you aboard.

Peter was born to race. She won the Round Gotland Race in her maiden season of 1939 and, nearly a century later, still lines up against some of the most beautiful yachts in the world.

Each season she sails a selection of historic Mediterranean regattas. This is not a passenger's day out — it is real racing, aboard a real classic, as part of a real crew.

New to her story? Read the full history of Peter.

Racing Aboard Peter

Become part of the crew — not the cargo.

Crew places are occasionally available for sailors and enthusiasts who want to experience classic yacht racing firsthand. Participation is active: trimming sails, managing manoeuvres and working as part of a coordinated team.

Peter is supported by a core team of experienced sailors from international racing circuits, so performance and safety are looked after throughout each event. No two positions are quite the same — we'll match you to a role that suits your experience.

Every rope serves a purpose. Every sail has a function.

Racing Pedigree

A benchmark on the classic circuit.

Optimised and sailed by Italian ex-America's Cup sailors, Peter became a consistent podium-finisher across the Mediterranean's premier classic regattas.
