Entries for Cowes Week 2022 will open at 12 noon on Friday 21 January, with Super Early Bird discounts available until 18 February.

A new one design class for Sonatas has been introduced to reflect its strong activity in Cowes over the past few years. Organisers have also added a class for the FarEast 28 who are intending to hold their European Championships at Cowes Week.

Onshore, the event will continue its legendary and wide-ranging social programme kicking off with the Cowes Week Opening Party on Saturday 30 July, for which DJ Mark Covell has already been re-booked.

Based on competitor feedback, an updated pricing structure has been introduced for Black Group boats for 2022 which has been radically altered to make it fairer across the board for different sized boats. The pricing bands are now broken down into 1 m increments and start at 7m rather than 9m which will lead to more consistency in what different boats are paying, irrespective of their overall length.

The team at Cowes Week look forward to welcoming competitors and visitors to the Regatta and to the sunny Isle of Wight for race day 1 on Saturday, July 30th. The overall prizegiving will be on Friday, August 5th.
