    ROLEX AND YACHTING THE CROWN IN SAILING ROLEX AND YACHTING Over the past 60 years, Rolex has forged a privileged relationship with yachting out of a natural affinity with this dynamic nautical sport and its time-honoured values. Today Rolex is the committed partner of the most prestigious yacht clubs, institutions and regattas in the world, sharing the highest standards of excellence with the custodians of yachting’s finest spirit. From the very beginning in 1905, Rolex founder Rolex naturally became associated with activities racers and elite skippers. A dozen clubs now Hans Wilsdorf set out to make wristwatches that shared its excellence, precision and team anchor a series of partnerships which give Rolex that would suit the increasingly active and sport- spirit. The brand gravitated toward the elite world title sponsorship of about 15 major races in the ing lifestyles of the modern world.

  • La Vela a Tokyo 2020
    Carissimi, siamo finalmente giunti a questo appuntamento Olimpico! Lo Sport – nella più nobile delle sue funzioni – potrà riunire tutti sotto un’unica bandiera: quella della solidarietà, del rispetto e della sana competizione. Questi lunghi mesi che ci stiamo lasciando faticosamente alle spalle hanno severamente provato il nostro spirito e ci hanno costretto a considerare in maniera più genuina i rapporti umani, le priorità della nostra vita, i nostri affetti. Lo Sport in questo contesto ha rafforzato la sua valenza sociale dimostrandosi un collante e nel contempo una valvola di sfogo. Questi Giochi devono e vogliono rappresentare una rinascita verso un graduale ritorno alla normalità, senza però dimenticare quanto accaduto. Preparare una spedizione Olimpica non è affatto semplice, soprattutto in uno sport come il nostro dove la preparazione atletica è solo uno dei molteplici componenti: meteorologia, tecnologia, programmazione, logistica, gestione delle risorse sono solo alcuni degli aspetti che attraversano in maniera trasversale il mondo della vela. Per questo vorrei ringraziare tutti coloro che hanno partecipato alla formazione di questa squadra: il Direttore Tecnico Michele Marchesini, tutti i Tecnici che in questo quadriennio hanno lavorato meticolosamente, il Team Manager Guglielmo Vatteroni, e tutto il comparto tecnico, medico e atletico dei collaboratori. Per ultimo – ma non certo per importanza, visto che questa pubblicazione è dedicata proprio a loro – il mio pensiero va ai ragazzi che ci rappresenteranno ai Giochi Olimpici: questi anni di preparazione li hanno visti maturare come atleti ma soprattutto sotto il profilo umano. Il mio augurio è che possano raccogliere il massimo da questa esperienza che rimane uno dei momenti più alti e indimenticabili nella vita di uno sportivo.

The IDA firmly believes that the overwhelming majority of Dragon sailors are amateurs who adhere to the Corinthian spirit. obligation to strictly adhere to the ISAF and Class Rules meaning Corinthian Trophies are awarded at all major events. It is interesting that on the water the races can be played out on a truly level playing to recognise that our top Corinthian sailors match and in many field. cases beat the professional part of the fleet.
