Nautor's Swan, world renowned luxury yacht manufacturer, are pleased to announce the introduction of a pure cruising event, supported by their long term partner Bvlgari, to their already action packed calendar of events for Swan Owners during 2003. The Bvlgari Swan Caribbean Rendezvous will take place in the British Virgin Islands between 9 - 13 April 2003.

Bitter End Yacht Club on Virgin Gorda, will be at the heart of the Caribbean Rendezvous providing the stunning backdrop for some of the most beautiful cruising yachts in the world to gather together and rekindle the true 'Spirit of Swan'. Nautor's Swan is renowned for the organisation of many competitive regattas for their owners , but this exciting new addition to their varied portfolio of events provides the true cruiser a chance to experience the unique camaraderie shared by all Swan owners.

The Bvlgari Swan Caribbean Rendezvous will take place over four days with the emphasis on relaxed day cruises to the islands making up the BVI and fun social events at a variety of BVI locations including Bitter End, Norman Island and Cooper Island. For those with a more competitive spirit there is a programme of water sport competitions at Bitter End and a fun non-spinnaker cruising race 'Round Virgin Gorda Island' on the last day.

Bvlgari, the Contemporary Italian Jeweller, will continue their long-term partnership with Nautor's Swan by supporting this first Caribbean Rendezvous. During the event the participants will have the opportunity to view the new collection of Bvlgari Sport Watches, including the "Diagono Professional" dedicated to water sports, and the prestigious "Scuba Chrono ClubSwan Limited Edition" at the Bitter End Yacht Club. Bvlgari will support all the social events at the Bitter End Yacht Club including the poolside Welcome Reception and the Final ClubSwan Barbecue.
