Wrapping up the 2017 Maxi Yacht Rolex Cup

The 2017 Maxi Yacht Rolex Cup delivered impressive high competition sailing conditions for the international fleet of ever-impressive Maxi yachts. Expertly organized by the Yacht Club Costa Smeralda (YCCS) in conjunction with the International Maxi Association and with the support of title sponsor Rolex, the 28th edition of this esteemed big-boat race reached a pulsating climax, as the competing yachts pushed to the wire to assert their individual claims to their class throne. Winning required meticulous preparation and consummate skill, in addition to patience and the ability to seize each and every opportunity. The 50th anniversary of the YCCS made this year’s race that much more special, highlighting the yacht club’s long-standing expertise and prestigious reputation in yachting.
