  • Ronronnements À Monaco Les Meetings De Canots Automobiles (1903-1906)
    La rade de Monaco en 1903. (Collection J. Lhérault). Ronronnements à Monaco Les meetings de canots automobiles (1903-1906) par Gérard Hartmann Le Racer de 18 mètres Panhard-Levassor, vainqueur de la course en mer en 1908. (La France Automobile). 1 Le meeting de Monaco Après plusieurs années de régates si- lencieuses dans le port de Monaco vers An- tibes ou Nice, le prince Albert Ier de Mona- co avec le staff sportif de la Société des bains de Mer, au premier rang duquel, son prési- dent Camille Blanc (1847-1927), décident d’organiser des courses de canots automo- biles. Après une année difficile, en 1903, le succès de la nouvelle formule est au ren- dez-vous, en 1904. Tout le gratin de l’aristocratie et de l’industrie naissante s’y rend. Désormais en avril, ouvrant la saison à Monaco, les moteurs à essence font rugir leur cavalerie. Son altesse sérénissime le Prince Albert 1er de Monaco (1848-1922) dans son laboratoire du muséum, 1908. (Le Dimanche Illustré). A cette époque, les canots automobiles à moteur à essence ou à pétrole sont une nouveauté extraordinaire. La plupart des véhicules lourds tels que les camions et les omnibus de transport de personnes sont tractés par la vapeur, le charbon est roi, les fiacres par des chevaux, le cheval et le pi- cotin aussi. Mais le prince est féru de nou- veautés : dirigeables, automobile, canots à moteur, expéditions lointaines, tout l’enthousiasme. La journée précédant les courses, avant le pesage a lieu chaque année une exposition-vente des canots automobiles. En 1905, on voit ici Camille Blanc (lettre en main), son altesse le prince Albert 1er et le prince de Bulgarie.
