The Costa Smeralda provides a stunning setting and a variety of great, challenging conditions for the Maxi Yacht Rolex Cup, one of the highlights of the Mediterranean yachting season. The first ever Maxi World Championship held in Sardinia in 1980 was the brainchild of the Yacht Club Costa Smeralda and it’s president, the Aga Khan. The regatta is now an eagerly anticipated annual event and attracts a sizeable fleet of majestic Maxi yachts to Porto Cervo, Italy each September. The 2014 edition on August 31-September 6 marks the 25th edition of the competition which comprises the fifth running of the much-vaunted Mini Maxi Rolex World Championship. Event details.
