SWAN MAXI CIRCUIT

The Swan Maxi Class Circuit, developed for Swan yachts over 60feet, is made up of a selection of the most prestigious regattas in the Mediterranean. The Class Circuit was established by Nautor's Swan in 2008 to bring together a network of Swan Maxi yachts from across the globe to enjoy a structured, active racing circuit. Over the course of the initiative's inaugural year the Swan Maxi Class rapidly expanded in stature. In September 2008, we saw the Class at its peak with a dramatic fleet of 36 Swan Maxis racing on the waters of Porto Cervo in the most prominent event in the Swan sailing calendar, the Rolex Swan Cup.

The Swan Maxi Class adopts the ‘owner-driver’ rule, and allows Class members to compete at all official circuit events with separate race starts dedicated to the Class. The official Swan Maxi Class Circuit for 2009 will incorporate: Hublot PalmaVela, Palma de Mallorca (Spain)                                  15 – 19 April Giraglia Rolex Cup (inshore races only), St Tropez (France)               13 – 20 June Maxi Yacht Rolex Cup, Porto Cervo (Sardinia)                         06 – 12 September Les Voiles de Saint Tropez (France)                           27 September – 04 October
