With many crews returned to homeport another unforgettable Newport Bermuda Race is in the books. For some, the memories will be of the trophies earned at the Prizegiving at Government House on Saturday.

For others, they'll be of midnight sail changes, Gulf Stream strategy, lifelong friendships, and the satisfaction of crossing the finish line after 636 miles at sea.

Congratulations to all of the sailors who earned trophies during this year's race. The 2026 edition certainly kept everyone on their toes and we appreciate the patience and sportsmanship shown by competitors throughout the process. Now it's time to recognize the outstanding performances that will be remembered as part of this race's history.
