Couldn’t start this week’s column without a word about Pendennis Shipyard’s impressive 20th anniversary celebrations at the Monaco Yacht Show last week.

Just how do you impress the rich and famous at one of the world’s top superyacht gatherings? Toby Allies of Pendennis Shipyard organized a show stopping, head turning moment by booking the Red Arrows to help celebrate the Yard’s 20th anniversary celebrations.

Hosting a champagne reception at Port Hercules in Monaco Harbour the Company arranged for the Red Arrows to strut their stuff in the skies overhead.

Flying over the Monte Carlo skyline takes some organizing as of course it is foreign airspace but Pendennis worked the miracle and as usual the Arrows performed with style and panache.

The Pendennis Cup regatta over Falmouth Week was a pretty impressive event as an appetizer but the Red Arrows over Monte Carlo is some main course.

If I am ever organizing a party or celebration I think I might have to talk to Pendennis as Style Councilors as they certainly know how to throw a party and it is really great that a Cornish shipyard can show such initiative and class.

Roll on their 21st next year!
