LOS ANGELES, May 17th, 2010 – My Yacht™ Monaco threw its annual red carpet, invitation only party on Friday 14th May, 2010 during the 2010 Monaco Grand Prix, and used the event to raise funds for one its chosen charities, the Prince Albert II of Monaco Foundation.

An on board silent auction of a limited edition Mark VIII C 032 Chronograph watch from Stefan Johansson Växjö, a long-time My Yacht™ Monaco partner, raised over $3500 for HSH Prince Albert’s charitable foundation. 

“As an annual event in Monaco, we feel it is important to support a locally-based charity but one that has a global reach in both its message and its works,” says My Yacht™ Monaco’s Founder and CEO, Nicholas Frankl.  “We have been honored to welcome HSH Prince Albert on board My Yachtä Monaco several times and are extremely proud to support his Foundation.”
