The 22nd edition of the Rolex Swan Cup has delivered exceptional racing across three days of competition characterized by varied conditions. A fleet in excess of a hundred Swan yachts have provided a typically graceful spectacle on racecourses held on the majestic Costa Smeralda. Two days of scheduled racing remain concluding with the final prizegiving to be held on Saturday 21 September. The 2024 Rolex Cup marks the 40th anniversary of the partnership between Rolex and the Yacht Club Costa Smeralda. Dating back to the 1984 edition of the regatta, it also marked the beginning of the partnership between the Swiss watchmaker and the Finnish shipyard, Nautor Swan.
