The summer classic sailing season has taken over the waters of the Gulf of Maine recently, with last weekend’s Boothbay Harbor YC Regatta and Shipyard Cup and the upcoming Camden Classics Cup, both events in the CYOA’s Classic Yacht Challenge Series.

Race Four of the Admiral’s Cup brought a tactical masterclass in light airs to the Central Solent. PRO Stuart Childerley set a windward leeward course for both classes, 1.6nm for AC1 and a shorter 1.4nm for AC2.

The transition from colourful and applauded challenges of 1983 and 1987, to Challengers for the XXVIII America’s Cup in San Diego, was a pivotal moment in the history of Italy in the competition.

The wind and the leaderboard did the big switcheroo on the third day of racing in the 2025 Admirals Cup, but otherwise the rich got richer on the regatta leaderboard.

Wednesday’s Admiral’s Cup inshore racing in the Solent didn’t quite have the wind of yesterday, but David Maynard was out on the water to catch the action in the morning before the wind switched off for a while.

From July 23 to 26, The Nations League brings sailing excitement to Lake Garda with eight teams from seven nations. DENZA, the luxury brand of the BYD Group, joins as the official automotive partner of the circuit.

Somehow the SailGP fleet at Portsmouth got the media attention on the weekend of 19th and 20th July but they missed the main event at Lee on Solent where the Solution, Phantom and Blaze classes came together for some proper close racing.

The weekend of the 5th-6th of July was set to be a busy one at Clyde Cruising Club Dinghy Section (CCCDS). In a surge of Sailability activity, three events were taking to the water at Bardowie Loch.

Fair winds, in the main, were the order of the day for the 28th edition of the Royal Channel Islands Yacht Club’s Waller-Harris Two-handed Triangle Race held from Saturday 12th to Monday 14th July.

As one of Britain’s finest offshore racers, it is fitting that Sam Goodchild has chosen to become an ambassador for British sailing apparel brand, Henri-Lloyd.
