By reaching six decades of existence, the Société Nautique de Marseille's flagship regatta confirms its unique place and becomes a little more a part of the history of the Metropolis, the City, its port and sailing.
Thrills in and out of the harbours
Without a doubt, the 60th SNIM is a major springtime event for liveaboard regattas in the Mediterranean, featuring banana-style constructed courses and coastal courses in the Olympic harbor for all competitors, as well as a major race open to IRC 0,1,2,3 and duos.
Expected every year by the most seasoned professional and amateur crews, the event brings together the finest IRC-rated monohulls, as well as SER certificate holders and one-design fleets.
The event is part of the IRC Mediterranean crewed and double-handed championship calendar. A real highlight for all sailing enthusiasts, whether seasoned competitors or simple enthusiasts, the Snim also stands out for the warm atmosphere that reigns ashore, on the pontoons as well as in the Société Nautique de Marseille areas, contributing fully to its prestige and success.
An anniversary that highlights the Club's environmental commitments
The Société Nautique de Marseille, an allied club of the Yacht Club de France - previously awarded the Blue Flag label and committed to a Clean Harbors initiative - is keen to reaffirm its environmental approach. Each competitor in the 60th Snim is invited to take part in an eco-responsible regatta, so that the shared passion for sailing becomes a vector for respect and protection of the marine environment. In concrete terms, participants are encouraged to reduce waste as much as possible, to ban single-use plastic both on board and ashore, to use reusable water bottles and to scrupulously respect the sorting facilities provided within the SNM perimeter. Limiting engine use and moderating water and electricity consumption in port are also part of the expected gestures. Outside regattas, particular attention is paid to preserving the seabed on the edge of the National Park, by respecting authorized anchorage zones, avoiding sea grass beds and using only biodegradable cleaning products. Finally, beyond the rules, the exemplarity of each crew is called upon to make the 60th Snim a responsible sporting event, respectful of the marine environment and conveying good practices to be shared on and off the water.
