Discover the structures of exclusive yacht clubs - their meaning, their history, the people who left their mark, the ships that sail under their pennant, and how to become a member today. This book takes you behind the scenes and shows for example, how the Royal Club Nautico Palma de Mallorca changed: from a jet set hangout around actor Errol Flynn, hero of many pirate movies, to one of the most important yacht clubs worldwide - and this under the active patronage of the Spanish royal family who were always keen on sailing.
