Los Angeles, CA April 1, 2014 – My Yacht™ Monaco, now in its ninth year, will be held aboard the 2011-built, 55.4m (181-foot) superyacht TURQUOISE.
TURQUOISE will serve as the luxury home to 4 days of F1 race viewing and luxury hospitality, including the traditional Friday night reception and party that’s traditionally attended by HSH Prince Albert II and Princess Charlene of Monaco, and a VIP Monegasque / Grand Prix list of guests. The tri-deck Proteksan Turquoise superyacht features a contemporary, elegant design, with expansive decks and spacious, luxuriously furnished lounges, and will be home to all of the weekend’s activities.
