YACHTING 2019

Rolex has forged a privileged relationship with yachting out of a natural affinity with this dynamic sport and its time-honoured values. This unique bond dates back more than half a century to a seminal partnership with the New York Yacht Club that shaped Rolex’s involvement in the sport. Today, Rolex has deep-rooted ties with the most prestigious yacht clubs, institutions and regattas in the world, sharing the highest standards of excellence with the custodians of yachting’s finest spirit.

    Adventure, courage, determination, discovery and sportsmanship define the Rolex Sydney Hobart Yacht Race, and reflect a sporting ethos with which Rolex is privileged to be associated. Staged every year since 1945, this classic offshore race demands the best from every crew member to overcome the challenging weather conditions on the 628-nautical-mile course between Sydney and Hobart, Tasmania. On 26 December thousands of spectators gather around Sydney’s beautiful harbour to see off the international fleet, ranging from 30-foot Corinthian-crewed boats to professionally sailed 100-foot Maxi yachts, as they embark on this formidable challenge.

    Precision and excellence are essentials at the Maxi Yacht Rolex Cup, for which the best skippers and crews are matched with the most advanced yachts. Attracting an impressive line-up of sailing power, the week-long event, held each September in Sardinia’s Porto Cervo on the Costa Smeralda, is a unique gathering for innovators of cutting-edge yachting technology. Created in 1980 by the Yacht Club Costa Smeralda and its president, the Aga Khan, the regatta is enduringly popular with professionals and Corinthians alike.
