Yacht Launch

Date: 4th & 5th September 2010

Location: IYCA Antibes

Number of guests: 130

Summary: Adams & Adams were recently hired to organise the launch party of brand new Vitters SY Marie at the International Quay in the port of Antibes. A private event, the owner invited his family and friends to fly in and help celebrate the recent launch of this beautiful 54M ketch. Reflecting the colours of the yacht, Adams & Adams set up the dining area in a large marquee on the dock and guests were able to enjoy a champagne reception followed by a sumptuous buffet dinner accompanied by wonderful music. Entertainment included live music including spectacular Opera and jazz provided by New Orleans based Delfeayo Marsalis Jazz Band and even cannon fire! Catering for 130 guests, Adams & Adams were pleased to be part of this momentous occasion set in the heart of Antibes. We wish the owner and crew of SY Marie many years of wonderful sailing.

Testimonial:"Kate's superb organization in arranging and taking care of every facet of the yacht's christening party meant that the crew were able to focus fully on the busy launch of the yacht from the yard whilst still being able to provide S/y Marie's owners with a truely beautiful and memorable occassion to celebrate with their friends and remember forever"
