Please note that the entry fee to Cowes Classics Week does not include fees for any moorings which you need to arrange for yourself.
This page provides guidance on arranging your mooring and you should additionally read the Cowes Harbour Commission Special Event Terms and Conditions.
Swinging Moorings
As usual, the Cowes Harbourmaster will lay additional moorings in the entrance to the Medina both inside and outside the breakwater. This is an annual feature to provide sufficient moorings for the 800 boats that arrive for Cowes Week and will be used by those keelboats that would normally use these facilities.
The following classes should book their moorings through their Class Association representative:
- Bembridge One Design
- National Swallow
- Redwing
- Solent Sunbeam
- Victory
- XOD
All other dayboats should contact Shepards Marina using
It is strongly advised to make your arrangements as early as possible.
