Welcome

Welcome to British Classic Week, the premier classic yacht regatta in the UK. The annual regatta organised by the British Classic Yacht Club (BCYC) celebrated its 20th anniversary in 2022.  British Classic Week has been held every year since the America's Cup Jubilee in 2001 and not only attracts entries from the UK, but also regularly from across Europe, and in 2016 and 2017, from Australia and New Zealand. 

The regatta is a celebratory occasion for classic boat enthusiasts to enjoy good racing and to spend time with fellow sailors who share the same appreciation of classic yachts.

The 2023 regatta will take place from 15th – 22nd July.  The BCYC is anticipating a wide entry of yachts from home and abroad, all looking to race in the iconic waters of the Solent. The six-race series, which includes the Nab Tower race, is once again being organised by the Royal Yacht Squadron.
