Redefining competitive sailing

Ultralight aerodynamic catamarans. Spectacular races on the seas across five continents. A unique experience for the public. The Rolex SailGP Championship, with Rolex as Title Partner and Official Timepiece, has revolutionized yacht racing and propelled competitive sailing into the future.

Twelve crews comprising the most talented of sailors. Identical catamarans, with foils and a rigid wingsail. Capable of rising above the waves to reach speeds of 50 knots, almost 100 km/h, they go head-to-head in rounds of no more than 15 minutes each. The Rolex SailGP Championship is redefining the world of competitive sailing with cutting-edge boats that deliver exceptional performance. These veritable flying yachts bear the flags of the nations they represent and make up the fastest fleet in history.

First held in 2019, the Rolex SailGP Championship has established itself as the most thrilling competition in the world of sailing and invigorates each season with new events. Now, a dozen races around the world are held throughout the year: San Francisco, Dubai, Auckland, Portsmouth, and even all the way to the shores of Lake Geneva. At each Grand Prix, the championship offers a spectacular show in front of huge grandstands, providing spectators with an exclusive experience.
