Across all eight classes at the 2022 Rolex Swan Cup, competition went down to the wire with the final races of the regatta proving decisive. Throughout a memorable week, Sardinia’s Costa Smeralda offered a fleet of over 90 registered entrants the opportunity to sail in one of the world’s most revered nautical environments. The event welcomed a wide range of Swan designs, from lovingly maintained classic models to cutting-edge recent launches. Following a four-year absence, the 21st edition of the Rolex Swan Cup represented a memorable return for this prestigious and historic competition. The Rolex Swan Cup was launched in 1980 and unites longstanding partners Rolex, Nautor Swan and event hosts the Yacht Club Costa Smeralda. Discover more https://on.rolex.com/3SjvIqJ
