All you seasick sailors out there, yeah I get it, the ocean is pure freedom, but as someone who likes to keep their feet firmly on the ground, the most honest sense of liberty I can find is in putting myself behind the wheel of a car and just going.

The annual Monaco Yacht Show, held at the end of September, celebrated its 29th anniversary this year. It was an amazing show of 125 superyachts in the charming setting of Port Hercules. 44 of the yachts were brand-new models, giving us a glimpse at the bright future of luxury boat design.
