“A proud commemoration of Olin and Rod Stephens’ beautiful yacht designs”

The global regatta is a racing competition between the regions of the S&S Association. The Challenge Cup is awarded at the AGM to the yacht that, in the preceding year, secured a class or overall win by the greatest percentage corrected time margin relative to the next placed yacht, in either an offshore or around the cans race. The 2023 Trophy will be awarded this year to the winner of an overnight race of more than 25 NM*

* If there are no entries for qualifying overnight races in 2023, the competition will be opened to entries for day races of more than 15NM.  A further announcement will follow if the need arises.
