36th Maxi Yacht Rolex Cup in Porto Cervo

Overview

The 36th Maxi Yacht Rolex Cup has commenced in Porto Cervo, featuring a fleet of over 40 maxi yachts and six multihulls. The competition, organized by the Yacht Club Costa Smeralda, includes races through the La Maddalena Archipelago and waters off Porto Cervo. This year’s event features two world titles: the Rolex IMA Maxi 1 World Championship and the Rolex IMA Grand Prix World Championship. New crew bonuses were introduced to encourage participation from young sailors under 21 and female sailors.

As racing progresses, Northstar III has taken a lead in the Maxi Grand Prix class, while Leopard 3 and WallyCento V are tied at the top of the Maxi 1 division. Other daily winners include Fra Diavolo, H2O, and Highland Fling XVIII. Due to light wind forecasts, the Race Committee adjusted the schedule by moving the planned rest day from Thursday to Wednesday to optimize racing conditions.
