Rolex Swan Cup Caribbean
The second edition of the Rolex Swan Cup Caribbean included four great days of sailing in the British Virgin Islands. The week’s excellent conditions offered constant challenges for the 21-strong fleet of Swans where Swan 80 Selene and Swan 53 Music dominated from the outset and went on to win their classes.

44-169 ISKANDER
 |
| Swan 44-169 ISKANDER (formerly KILKENNY) came all the way from Chicago on a cargo ship and was unloaded in Antwerp. Quite a long trailer indeed. She was then launched in Monaco Marine St. Laurent du Var for her first taste of sea water. We did commission the boat and rig her up. |
