A Cutting-Edge, Upstart Yacht Club in Sardinia
By Chris Museler
- Sept. 4, 2015
Two centenarian clubs occupied the top of the global yachting world in 1983: the New York Yacht Club and the Royal Yacht Squadron, on England’s Isle of Wight.
The stone foundations of the two clubhouses on opposite sides of the Atlantic resembled mini forts defending their traditions from the modern world. New York was also defending something equally precious: the America’s Cup.
So the Yacht Club Costa Smeralda, founded in 1967 by the Aga Khan, raised more than a few eyebrows when it sent a challenger to Newport, Rhode Island, for the 1983 America’s Cup races, a curvy red diamond dominating its burgee and spirited young Italian sailors on board. But the team put on a strong showing and went on to pursue their Azzura racing campaigns into the modern world of Grand Prix sailing.
The America’s Cup involvement is only a blip, however, in the club’s history, which is considerably shorter than that of the most significant American and European yacht clubs, all founded between the mid 1800s and early 1900s. In its short existence, the Yacht Club Costa Smeralda has influenced not only the type of racing that members of the venerable clubs and other sailors in the yachting establishment enjoy, but also the level of service and hospitality on shore that is now standard at all large yachting events.
“They are still a small club compared to the most influential ones,” said Bruno Trouble, a French America’s Cup sailor who created the enduring partnership between the sponsor Louis Vuitton and the Cup challenger series. “They are quite influential in the wealth of the membership alone. And it is an incredible place to sail and enjoy. It’s the most expensive postcard in the world.”
The Aga Khan developed the rugged shore of Sardinia and the natural harbor of Porto Cervo in the 1960s. He continued to build hotels along the Costa Smeralda and carved out a corner for his vision of a new yacht club to service the growing number of ultra wealthy vacationers on the Italian island.
Originally housed in the rustic Maison du Port, in 1977 the club moved into a purpose-built facility overlooking the azure waters of the harbor. It has a modern marina capable of hosting some of the largest private sail and motor yachts on the planet.
If the established clubs of the world were holding to the traditional look and feel of a classic yacht club, with walnut-paneled walls and dimpled leather chairs, the Yacht Club Costa Smeralda was catering to the appetites of their billionaire members, who were used to the contemporary luxury of Europe and elite resorts around the world.
But the Porto Cervo club’s biggest influence on world yachting and racing has been in the superyacht scene, Trouble said: Owners need a place to race their 200-foot yachts.
“Boats get bigger and bigger, and we had to become better organized on shore,” said Ricardo Bornadeo, the commodore of the club and the club’s first secretary, who raced a 44-footer in the early days of the club. “We are following the natural evolution of the fleet around the world and the expectations of the owners.”
The rocky section of Sardinian coastline to which the yacht club clings is visually spectacular, and the view is complimented by the high-end luxury of the hotels promoted by the Aga Khan. Presidential hotel suites can be had for $36,000 per night.
But Bornadeo said “lifestyle” was only part of the story. “We prefer to concentrate on the best possible organization on the water and on land, and with all kinds of assistance for the sailors and their boats,” he added. “Lifestyle is not our target.”
The yachting historian John Rousmaniere said that the Yacht Club Costa Smeralda filled a growing need. “The maxi yachts wanted to be able to sail in the Med,” he said. “The owners needed someone they could count on to host them and give them a luxurious experience. It caught on right away.”
Bornadeo said the Aga Khan is still the driving force behind the club’s management.
Each act of the Yacht Club Costa Smeralda has been hard to follow and hard to match. But with most rival yacht clubs well over 100 years old, there is a lot more history to write for this “new” club.
YACHT CLUB COSTA SMERALDA
The youngest twinned club.

Yacht Class n°22 (sept-oct-nov 2020)
Since 1967, the Costa Smeralda (Emerald Coast in Italian) in Sardinia hosts an eponymous yacht club. An institution with an international aura, which has a privileged relationship with the Yacht Club de Monaco.
Written by Aurore Teodoro – Photos : Rolex Borlenghi, Studio Martinez, Studio Borlenghi, YCCS & DR
This is the youngest of all the clubs twinned with Monaco, but certainly not the least dynamic. Created in May 1967 by H.H. the Aga Khan, Andrè Ardoin, Giuseppe Kerry Mentasti and Luigi Vietti as a non-profit sports association for fellow sailing enthusiasts and with a view to promoting related activities, the very active Yacht Club Costa Smeralda (ycss) had soon earned its stripes and joined the big league. Affiliated with the Italian Sailing Federation since 1968 and with the Italian Powerboat Federation since 1978, the club has since its inception aimed to organize international regattas and as early as 1972 the first edition of the Settimana delle Bocche was held. Then the following year, with the One Ton Cup, the Club was recognized as the main promoter of competitive offshore sailing in Italy and in the Mediterranean. The YCCS was also the one to launch the first Italian challenge for the America’s Cup in 1981. Today, the YCCS has lost none of its superb and is involved in many major international events, including world championships, for a wide range of classes (including the J, Wally, TP52, RC44, ClubSwan 50, Melges 32, J/70 and Maxi 72 classes). The YCCS also organises regattas in collaboration with top shipyards such as Nautor’s Swan, Perini Navi and Southern Wind.In addition to the sporting calendar, the YCCS also promotes activities relating to the YCCS Sailing School and the One Ocean Foundation, created in March 2018 from an environmental sustainability project launched in 2017 to mark the Club’s 50th anniversary.
Riccardo Bonadeo : “A specific experience with superyachts and maxi yachts”
Interview by Jean-Marc Moreno – Photos : Rolex Borlenghi, Studio Martinez, Studio Borlenghi, YCCS & All rights reserved
Riccardo Bonadeo perfectly remembers when he became a member of the YCCS. It was on August 18th 1978. That same year, he had won the edition of the Settimana delle Bocche regatta. Since 2008, he is the Commodore of this prestigious institution and its 700 members, representing 25 nationalities. People from various backgrounds, be they top international yachtsmen and women and key names from the world of business, or people who simply love the sea.
What are your key events?
The YCCS organises international sailing regattas, including world championships, for a wide range of boats and has specific experience with superyachts and maxi yachts. Among the prestigious classes that frequently race in the Costa Smeralda are the J Class, Wally Class, TP52, RC44, ClubSwan 50 and 36, Melges 32, J/70 and Maxi 72 classes. The YCCS also organises regattas in collaboration with top shipyards such as Nautor’s Swan, Perini Navi and Southern Wind. The main events today are undoubtedly the ones we organise for superyachts, and above all our traditional September regattas with the support of our historic partner Rolex, such as the Maxi Yacht Rolex Cup and the Rolex Swan Cup.
What is your best memory as Commodore?
I have so many great memories from my experience as YCCS Commodore, but also before that as CEO of the first Italian challenge for the America’s Cup in 1983 with Azzurra, and later managing the two VO60 boats sponsored by Amer Sports for Nautor’s campaign for the Volvo Ocean Race 2001-2002.
As Commodore I can proudly recall the winning comeback of Azzurra in November 2009 at the first Louis Vuitton Trophy regatta. The year 2011 saw the launch of the TP52 Azzurra, the sporting symbol of the YCCS, which has brought us great emotions and successes over the years, for which I thank the owners, our members the Roemmers. The last memory I’ll be carrying with me as the outgoing Commodore is the One Ocean Foundation, our environmental sustainability project born from the One Ocean Forum which the YCCS organized in 2017 on the occasion of its 50th anniversary. The principle of safeguarding the seas has become part of the DNA of the Club, blending perfectly with the sporting spirit that has always inspired us in our activities.
What would you consider to be the advantages of a twinning with the Yacht Club de Monaco?
Certainly the opportunity for our members to attend the respective facilities, enjoying the beautiful locations of the clubs throughout the year. The YCCS base offers members 24 suites, a bar, restaurant and panoramic swimming pool. In 2016 it was expanded with a presidential suite of 700 square metres. Our club also has the exclusive YCCS Wellness Center & Spa and the YCCS Sailing School.
How do these take concrete form?
Members of both clubs can take advantage of the services and facilities on offer by means of a letter of introduction. We have always seen this exchange and continuous interaction between clubs as an opportunity for enrichment. We always try to build on our reciprocity over and above the services that our members can enjoy in both clubs. We are pleased to support sporting events such as the Palermo – Porto Cervo – Montecarlo race. We are also happy that our Smeralda 888 Class, which celebrates its 25th birthday in 2020, has found a new home at the Yacht Club de Monaco and a new racing circuit – of which we host some legs. In this year in which the pandemic Covid-19 caused our activities to be halted, we actually started the sporting season off with the Coppa Europa Smeralda 888 event.

Self-indulgence on the Costa Smeralda
All products are independently selected by our editors. If you buy something, we may earn an affiliate commission.
The Costa Smeralda is still the Italian getaway of the stars and the mega-rich, with superyacht regattas drawing the crowds every April. The Blu Mediterraneo Spa , a huge attraction every season, is the only ticket into the members-only club itself. And now there's fresh appeal, with Acqua di Parma 's new Italian Resort skincare collection. The utterly Italian brand known for its delicious smells and glamorous image absolutely typifies this place, alongside swathes of Loro Piana cashmere and handsome boys with nut-brown tans climbing the rigging.
One of just two Acqua di Parma spas in the world, this gloriously chic set-up has cool whitewashed walls lined with sparkling mosaic tiles. The signature Mediterranean Oxygenating Complex is fantastic, a blend of essential oils and minerals that help the native flora thrive against the wind, sun and salt. The treatment to go for is the Detoxifying Body Therapy : two hours of deep exfoliation and massage that will leave tired skin buffed and beaming. Book in at least a week in advance at the height of summer when the jet-set roll into town. The feel-good creams and scrubs will help you hang on to that holiday glow for longer, and the fragrance combination - bergamot, cypress and sea accord - still evokes the scent of the Med even once you're home. Post-spa, head for an ice-cold limoncello on the terrace and keep your eyes peeled for George Clooney, Julia Roberts and Jay Z.

Yacht Club Costa Smeralda
Porto cervo, italy, 2000 - 2002, peter marino architect.
The Yacht Club Costa Smeralda, founded in Porto Cervo in 1967 and renowned for its organization of international regattas, is known the world over as an undeniable icon of luxury and prestige.
In 2003, the Clubhouse was extended and completely restyled under the watch of American architect Peter Marino.
The result was what is now considered one of the most famous, modern and functional structures of its kind.
The imposing complex is characterized by large fixed and sliding bronze windows made by Astec in a customized manner with extruded Architectural Bronze, a resistant material suitable for a marine environment filled with salt air, pushing winds and humidity.
The intense work carried out alongside the world-renowned designer allowed for the creation of some special pieces, such as a horizontal sun shades with a duckboard effect, and shapes in line with a supporting steel structure and burnished copper alloy cladding, as well as teak and stainless-steel parapets with oval-shaped horizontal and vertical pipework.

The final day of the 34th Maxi Yacht Rolex Cup and the first Rolex IMA Maxi 1 World Championship was an excellent one.
The event was organised by the YCCS with the support of title sponsor Rolex – with whom it celebrates 40 years of partnership this year – and in collaboration with the International Maxi Association (IMA). Thanks to a Mistral wind ranging from 16 to 24 knots, the fleet was able to complete a coastal race in the type of perfect conditions that have earned the Porto Cervo race course its international renown. Among those enjoying the racing at the YCCS were Quanhai Li, President of World Sailing, and Francesco Ettorre, President of the Italian Sailing Federation (FIV).
Victory in the first Rolex IMA Maxi 1 World Championship went to Joost Schuijff’s Leopard 3 with Ed Baird – winner of the 32nd America’s Cup at the helm of Alinghi – calling tactics.
Also taking home the top prize in their respective divisions at the 34th Maxi Yacht Rolex Cup were: George Sakellaris’ Proteus in the Maxi 2 class, the J Class yacht Svea in the Supermaxi class, Aldo Parisotto’s Oscar 3 in Maxi 3, Riccardo de Michele’s H2O in Maxi 4, and Riccardo Pavoncelli’s Gaetana in the Multihull class.
To make the most of this final day, the Race Committee had moved the start time forward to 10 a.m. CEST, and racing began promptly in ideal conditions, with Mistral winds of 16 to 18 knots. For the Maxi 1 and 2 classes, a course of around 43 miles was chosen that initially took the two divisions south to round the islands of Mortorio and Soffi, then on an upwind leg to enter the La Maddalena channel through the Passo delle Bisce strait, before circumnavigating the islands of La Maddalena and Caprera clockwise and heading on a final reaching return leg to Porto Cervo, leaving the Monaci islet to starboard and the Secca di Tre Monti shoal to port.
All other classes completed a course of around 31 miles: after leaving the Monaci islet to port, the fleet sailed a close reaching upwind leg towards the Secca di Tre Monti shoal, from where they too rounded the islands of La Maddalena and Caprera in a clockwise direction and turned back towards Porto Cervo on a downwind run.
The newly-crowned world champion, the 100-foot Leopard 3, came out on top thanks to a win in today’s race alomgside two fourth places in the windward-leewards held earlier in the week, bringing them to an overall total of 9 points. Completing the podium were Django HF on 12 points, and the WallyCento V with 14 points. In this highly competitive Maxi 1 class, Deep Blue and Bullitt also ended the series with 14 points, but lost out on countback.
It was a similar situation in the Maxi 2 and Supermaxi classes. In the Maxi 2 group Proteus finished on equal points (8) with the runner-up, Jolt, with her win in today’s final race making the difference. Third place went to Northstar of London. Among the Supermaxi, the J Class yacht Svea won today’s race to oust Moat, winner of the first coastal race, from the top spot. Third place went to Velsheda, the other J Class yacht competing.
In the Maxi 3 class, Aldo Parisotto’s Oscar 3 came out on top, followed by Spirit of Lorina, today’s winner of the day, and Grande Orazio, who took third place on equal points. Likewise in the Maxi 4 class, the winner H2O was followed by Wallyño in second and Shirlaf in third on equal points.
Two wins ensured victory for the 66-footer Gaetana in the Multihull class, leaving Allegra in second place and Highland Fling XVIII in third.
Spectators were treated to particularly spectacular duels throughout today’s race between those boats with closely-matched performance characteristics, such as the four Maxi 2 boats, the multihulls Allegra and Highland Fling XVIII, and the J Class yachts Svea and Velsheda. Competition was also breathtakingly tight between the 100-footers Galateia and SHK Scallywag, Oscar 3 and Grande Orazio in the Maxi 3 class, and between the 60-footers Wallyño, owned by IMA President Benoît de Froidmont, and Manticore.
Today the three young athletes from the Young Azzurra sports programme had the opportunity to race aboard three different maxi yachts owned by YCCS members. Maddalena Spanu (reigning Wingfoil world champion), Federico Pilloni (iQFOiL world youth champion) and Cesare Barabino, an ILCA 7 athlete, all relished this new and illuminating experience.
Andrea Recordati, YCCS Commodore: “This 34th edition of the Maxi Yacht Rolex Cup was undoubtedly complex due to weather conditions that prevented us from racing as much as we would have liked, but all credit must go to the Race Committee and the entire Yacht Club Costa Smeralda organisation for giving it their all. Today really delivered, offering the brisk, steady winds typical of the Costa Smeralda and a coastal course that took us through the spectacular scenery of the La Maddalena archipelago, and it was a good race for everyone. Congratulations to the winners in their respective classes and thank you on behalf of the YCCS to all the participants who helped make the event, as always, unique. I would also like to thank the president of World Sailing, Quanhai Li, for his crucial support and for being here with us in Porto Cervo, as well as our partner Rolex, with whom we are celebrating 40 years of collaboration.”
At a packed prize-giving ceremony in Piazza Azzurra, Rolex timepieces were awarded to the owners of the first-placed yachts in addition to two perpetual trophies in memory of Commodore Alberini, presented to Adrian Keller of Allegra, and the Paolo Massarini ORC Challenge Trophy, reserved for the Supermaxi class winner, Svea. Riccardo de Michele, owner of H2O, also received a prize as the top-ranking YCCS member.
During the 34th Maxi Yacht Rolex Cup, electric buoys with GPS positioning were used for the starts and windward-leeward courses, eliminating the need for anchoring, and preserving the integrity of the seabed.
?The YCCS now turns its attention to the 22nd Rolex Swan Cup, starting on Monday 16th September.
