Sail GP

Dive into the exhilarating world of SailGP, where cutting-edge technology and top-tier sailing talent converge in spectacular races across the globe. As the global Presenting Partner and exclusive Official Timepiece, Rolex plays a pivotal role in this high-octane regatta circuit. Experience the thrill of F50 foiling catamarans racing at breathtaking speeds, and discover the innovative spirit and commitment to excellence that defines SailGP and its partnership with Rolex.

Crews made up of some of the best sailors. Identical catamarans, with foils and a rigid wingsail, capable of reaching 50 knots, or nearly 100 km/h. Spectacular races that last 15 minutes at most. A season organized on the seas of five continents. Launched in 2019, the SailGP circuit has redefined the world of competitive sailing, utilizing innovative, continuously optimized catamarans. These flying yachts bear the colors of the countries they represent and embody the present and future of the sport.

The SailGP championship has also generated the Impact League, the Women’s Pathway program and SailGP Inspire, initiatives aimed at promoting sustainability and diversity in the yachting world.
