The Concourse D’ Elegance, hosted by The Tahoe
Yacht Club, serves as one of the most prestigious
judging events for classic wooden boats. It has
taken place every August for the last 44 years,
awarding owners for their restoration efforts in
returning their boats to their original condition.
The show is a centerpiece of the Wooden Boat
Week at Lake Tahoe which consists of the show,
various barbecue events for yacht club members
and the Woodie-Over-The-Bottom race, which
is a multi-step race over an annually changing
course that consists of completing multiple tasks at
predetermined speeds.
