2026 Series

This series is created by the organisers of Falmouth, Dartmouth, Looe Lugger and Fowey Classics to encourage boats to enter more than one – and hopefully all four – of the participating classic regattas. They also hope it will attract more boats to these Westcountry regattas from further afield.

Eligible Vessels
Each regatta’s current eligibility criteria will apply, but the minimum length on deck (LOD) for the series will be 5.5m/18ft and only keelboats or displacement vessels with centreboards are eligible.

Classes
Each regatta will continue to use its current class structure.

Points for the Series
Points will be based on the yacht’s overall placing in each regatta entered.

Prizes
A prize-giving will take place at the end of the season with trophies for best performances by small and large bermudan and gaff/other rig boats. Any boat entering all three regattas has a very good chance of a prize!

The organisers of the participating regattas invite you to take part in this series and look forward to welcoming you to their regattas.

Enquiries and entries should be made direct to the participating regattas.
