For nearly forty years, the Maxi Yacht Rolex Cup has been one of the most important annual events in the international sailing calendar. Built on the foundations of the long-term partnership between like-minded organisations in Rolex, the Yacht Club Costa Smeralda and the International Maxi Association, its appeal is unique. The event brings together many of the world’s most powerful and innovative Maxi yachts, the cream of international sailing talent, professional race management and a sailing environment without equal. The 32nd edition of the event takes place from 4 to 10 September and is set to welcome an impressive entry list of nearly 50 international yachts. Racing on Sardinia’s renowned Costa Smeralda will take place over five days of competition with the focus on teamwork and consistency as crews seek to claim coveted class victories.

Rolex has always associated with activities driven by passion, excellence, precision and team spirit. The Swiss watchmaker naturally gravitated towards the elite world of yachting six decades ago and the brand’s enduring partnership now encompasses the most prestigious clubs, races and regattas, as well as towering figures in the sport, including ground-breaking round-the-world yachtsman Sir Francis Chichester and the most successful Olympic sailor of all time, Sir Ben Ainslie. Today, Rolex is Title Sponsor of 15 major international events – from leading offshore races such as the annual Rolex Sydney Hobart Yacht Race and the biennial Rolex Fastnet Race, to grand prix competition at the Rolex TP52 World Championship and spectacular gatherings at the Maxi Yacht Rolex Cup and the Rolex Swan Cup. It also supports the exciting SailGP global championship in which national teams race identical supercharged F50 catamarans on some of the world’s most famous harbours. Rolex’s partnerships with the Cruising Yacht Club of Australia, Royal Ocean Racing Club, Yacht Club Costa Smeralda, Yacht Club Italiano, New York Yacht Club and Royal Yacht Squadron, among others, are the foundation of its enduring relationship with this dynamic sport.
