Corinthian Classic Yacht Regatta 2026

Date: 8 August 2026 – 9 August 2026

Location: Corinthian Yacht Club, Marblehead, United States

Organizer: Corinthian Yacht Club

The Corinthian Classic Yacht Regatta is a two-day event for classic yachts sailed on the waters off Marblehead, Massachusetts, hosted by the Corinthian Yacht Club and presented by Doyle Sailmakers. It is held on the second weekend of August; the 2026 edition runs 8 and 9 August. The tagline is 'Classic Yachts and Characters', which is accurate. The fleet mixes restored vintage yachts with spirit-of-tradition boats, and the dock walk is half the reason to come. Racing takes place in Massachusetts Bay with handicapping intended to keep old boats of very different eras in the same conversation. The regatta is a registered Clean Regatta with Sailors for the Sea, and sponsors include WoodenBoat and the Classic Yacht Association. Shoreside, the club at 1 Nahant Street hosts a regatta dinner. Marblehead has been racing yachts since the 19th century, and this is the weekend the harbour looks its best.
