Excitement is building as classic yachts converge on English Harbour. With over 50 yachts registered this year it's going to be another unforgettable week on and off the water.
From April 15 to 20, Nelson's Dockyard will once again come alive with the sights and sounds of classic yachts, each with its own history, character, and story to tell. Whether you're joining us shoreside or heading out on the water, there's something special about this gathering that continues to draw sailors and spectators from around the world.
For those participating in the racing, please note that the Sailing Instructions are now posted on the regatta website, antiguaclassics.com. We encourage all skippers and crew to review them in advance to ensure a smooth and enjoyable series.
We look forward to welcoming you to English Harbour for a week of great sailing, camaraderie, and celebration of classic yachts.
