The Yacht Week Announce Partnership with Larsson & Jennings
The Summer’s hottest collaboration is here: Larsson & Jennings X The Yacht Week. Anglo-Swedish watch label Larsson & Jennings have partnered with the infamous Yacht Week to create a bespoke LTD Edition watch and offer the best summer holiday competition, ever.
Larsson & Jennings on the watch:
We are excited to launch a LTD Edition collaboration watch with The Yacht Week. Once it’s sold out that is it. Influenced by the ocean this is a watch that’s comfortable at sea or in the boat house . We’ve brought back Silver Stainless Steel into the L&J collection, added numbered minute markers to the dial for sporting detail and produced an exclusive Blue & Yellow strap. The Yacht Week logo is engraved into the back casing for added detail. Each purchase comes with a specially designed Anchor Bracelet. Available from Mid May.”
As part of the collaboration Larsson & Jennings are also running a competition for 4 winners to come on the L&J yacht in Croatia: Week 28, July 6th – 13th, Croatia, 54ft Yacht and the summers best parties.
The Yacht Week Announce Partnership with SKYY Vodka
SKYY VODKA, the premium vodka born in San Francisco, loves the sea and that most fascinating and elegant of sports – sailing. For the second year SKYY VODKA is partner of The Yacht Week, and since last year it can also associate its name with the most prestigious sailing competition in the world, the 34th America’s Cup.
SKYY VODKA was first conceived in 1992 by an inventor looking to create the world’s smoothest vodka. On-board or off the water it is a delicious drink and the superiority is due to the proprietary quadruple-distillation and triple-filtration process that consistently ensures exceptional quality.
Sailing is part of SKYY VODKA’s soul, which is demonstrated by the sponsorship of one of the most prestigious sailing teams in the world, the Emirates Team New Zealand during their competition for the America’s Cup. Moreover, SKYY VODKA is sponsor of The Yacht Week in Italy for the exhilarating sailing experience in the Aeolian Islands that will involve 20 boats a week, from July 13th until August 17th.
This year SKYY VODKA will be part of the The Yacht Week fleet with a cobalt blue boat carrying its logo and characteristic colour. SKYY VODKA’s boat will accommodate all SKYY’s guests giving them the chance to enjoy a charming holiday amongst the amazing Aeolian Islands. They will have the chance to participate in the glamorous and trendy SKYY parties that will be organized during the summer, three times a week.
With its iconic cobalt blue bottle SKYY VODKA is the perfect drink after a race or a day out in the sea. Juicy and flavoursome it suits all moments to relax and enjoy the company of your friends.
A special cocktail has been created to celebrate the link with the sailing world and the America’s Cup: SKYYPPER. It is a fresh drink with ingredients that recall New Zealand. Easy to prepare, SKYYPPER is a mixture of Lemon-soda, Blue Curaçao and of course SKYY VODKA.
This summer all participants and guests of The Yacht Week will also have the chance to taste the new SKYYPIROSKA made with the latest SKYY Glacial Mint or with the well known SKYY Peach, SKYY Strawberry and SKYY Passion Fruit.

The Yacht Week Cinco de Mayo Garden Party – NYC – 4th May, 2013
¡Hola sailors!
The winds are shifting and fair weather is on the horizon so we thought it time for a change of course. We’re trading the poop deck for a piñata….
The evening of May 4th will mark the first in our Yacht Week Summer Events series, kicking off with a Cinco de Mayo Garden Party at the Hudson Hotel. The Yacht Week is taking over the newly remodeled rooftop Tequila Garden and Hudson Library for some Mexican revelry and glamorous excess.
Get prepared for a summer garden party like no other; our interconnecting private spaces will provide two very unique experiences. The Tequila Garden will become a magical Mexican wonderland that will make Tulum seem like an abandoned border town truck stop. At this lush rooftop garden you’ll be able to load up on freshly prepared street food at the garden taco shack, shoot some liquid courage served by our luchadores, whack the piñata and make it rain Avion Tequila or just relax and enjoy live music and some very unique entertainment. While by contrast, the Hudson Library will be transformed into a glamorous den of sparkle and gold. The wood paneled room will be scattered with bathtubs filled with ice and bottles of ABSOLUT TUNE, gold balloons will adorn the walls and our newest DJs Sabrina Burda and Natalie Dodge will be bringing more than their fair share of up-tempo glamour. Like all our events, we are limited on capacity and expect to sell out. See below for all the details on how to sign up.
Venue: The Hudson Hotel, 356 West 58th Street, NYC (in the Hudson Library and Tequila Garden)
Time: 6pm – Midnight
Theme: New York rooftop party meets Mexican Fiesta – Think chinos with a Lucha Libre mask, or a summer dress with a sombrero…
Drinks: Specials from our liquor partners Absolut Tune and Avion Tequila available from 6-9pm
Tickets: $20 sign up here
And in case you were wondering what the last event was like – look no further:
Looking forward to seeing you south of the border….
