Swan 45 DSK-Comifin is preparing to compete in one of the most important events of 2008 season, Rolex Capri Sailing Week, from 21-24 May.

Milan, 13 May 2008 - Following on from an impressive start to the season by claiming victory at the Memorial George Falck Regatta in Scarlino, 20 Swan 45s will be competing against owner/helmsman Danilo Salsi and his crew for the prestigious title of Swan 45 Italian Champion.

Commenting on the anticipated conditions DSK-Comifin’s tactician Pietro D’Ali stated; “We expect that the winds will be lighter in Capri than they were in Scarlino. The island makes it more challenging, so we’ll need to keep our eyes open at all times. That said, we are all familiar with the waters having competed there many times and won this regatta in 2006.”

The Rolex Capri Sailing Week is the first event of Swan 45 international circuit and is followed by another top level sailing event: the Sardinia Rolex Cup, in which DSK-Comifin will compete together with Farr 40 Mascalzone Latino and the TP52 Audi Q8.

The crew of DSK-Comifin in Rolex Capri Sailing Week includes: Danilo Salsi (helmsman), Pietro D'Alì (tactician), Andrea Casale (main), Andrea Caracci (navigator), Vittorio Rosso (trimmer), Riccardo de Magistris (pit), Max Cavallo (mast), Anna Salsi Caldirola (bow), Stefano Gerardi (bow), Saverio Cigliano (bow), Nuno Barreto (trimmer) and Luca Faravelli.
