Cowes Spring Classics is a new regatta for classic wooden yachts designed before 1970, including: Cruisers & Cruiser Racers, Affordable Classic Cruisers around 25ft, Gaff Rigged Yachts & Pilot Cutters, Day Boats & Raters, Classic Metre Yachts plus Modern Spirit of Tradition Yachts. Non-racing Yachts and Motorboats are most welcome.

• The Regatta will be conducted in the Corinthian Spirit and in a Gentlemanly Manner in keeping with the age of the competing yachts:
• No Cheating
• No Collisions
• No Complaining
• (Usual RYA small print applies)

Although we expect people to take the racing seriously, it will very much be a relaxed regatta conducted in a gentlemanly manner in keeping with the age of the yachts. We aim to make the social side and the appreciation of the history of the competing yachts as important as the racing.
