The world's most impressive monohull yachts - known in the sailing community as Maxis - are admired for their power and elegance. Owned and frequently helmed by individuals accustomed to considerable success in all aspects of life, Maxis are often sailed by outstanding professional talent and designed by architectural visionaries.

Held annually in Porto Cervo, Sardinia it is open only to yachts over 18.29 metres (60 feet) in length. The #event is organized by the Yacht Club Costa Smeralda and the International Maxi Association. The 2016 edition takes place from 4-10 September.

Mike Sanderson, former #rolex World Sailor of the Year, is clear on the competitive foundations of the regatta: "This #event sees successful businessmen and multiple world champion sailors racing against each other. Everyone is used to winning."

Fact: The record number of entrants at the #competition stands at 49, set in 2010.
