If you do not have a website account then you'll need to create a new account and then Log In.


NEW HELM & NO SPINNAKER PRIZES

There are two special prizes you need to consider when entering. If this is your first time helming at Cowes Classics Regatta then you are elegible for the New Helm Trophy. During the entry process there is a question where you can let us know you are new to the regatta. 

Additionally, for Classic yachts, including Classic S&S designs, 30’ LOA and over, there is a No Spinnaker Division that you can register for with a tick box on the entry form. Entries in this division will require a non-spinnaker AERA YTC Rating.
