Société Nautique de Genève (SNG), Suisse
The Bol d'Or du Léman is the world's largest inland lake regatta. Started in 1939, it welcomes monohulls and multihulls each year on Lake Geneva, starting in Geneva, Switzerland. More than 400 boats encounter each other on this 123 kilometre (66.5 nautical miles) course from Geneva to Le Bouveret and back.
A true lake festival, the Bol d'Or du Léman is one of the major events on Lake Geneva each year. Thousands of spectators attended the start of the race, the cannon being fired at 10 am.
