The 12th edition of Cowes Classics Week runs from 27th July to 2nd August, with racing from Monday, 29th July onwards. Organised by the Royal London Yacht Club, Cowes Classics Week is all about racing traditional yachts with Metre boats, Classic Racing Dayboats, Classic Yachts, Old Gaffers and Spirit of Tradition Yachts all sailing varied courses on the Solent. 

This year’s Cowes Classics Week is set to be another vintage regatta, ‘vintage’ defining not just the quality of the event but the pedigree of the fleet that is taking part as the entry list shapes up once again to give some seriously promising competition to all comers. 

New for 2019, you will be able to listen to live action from on the water, from anywhere in the world on www.cowesradio.co.uk or locally on 87.7fm thanks to Cowes Radio, the professional broadcasting team, which has been covering Cowes Week and the Fastnet Race for the past 34 years. Media stars and expert commentators will deliver interviews and commentary throughout Cowes Classics Week.
