Ten yachts attended the inaugural BCYC regatta held in Cowes, July 2002, marking the start of an annual regatta which has continued to grow in size and popularity. What started as a long weekend of informal racing has now grown to a week long regatta of rallying and racing split into many classes. In 2006 40 yachts ranging in size from the 31ft International 5 Metre, Sensa, to the 95ft J Samuel White Bermudan ketch, Berenice, attended the regatta coming from all over the UK & Europe. By 2011, over 60 Yachts, racing in four divisions, were joined by a growing fleet of cruisers.
