About the Newport Bermuda Race

The Company was established in 1906, making it one of sailing’s oldest events. It remains the longest regularly scheduled ocean race held almost entirely out of sight of land. The Cruising Club of America and the Royal Bermuda Yacht Club jointly organise every race.

Thomas Fleming Day conceived the race to challenge the idea that offshore sailing was elitist. His vision encouraged smaller, seaworthy yachts sailed by amateur crews across open ocean. That spirit of amateur seamanship continues to define the race’s character more than a century later.

The race tracker and newport bermuda race tracker tools update positions continuously. Race followers monitor fleet progress, weather conditions, and estimated arrival times in real time. Newport bermuda race results are published officially once boats cross the finish line at Bermuda.

In 2024, the race attracted participants representing 25 countries across its various competitive divisions. Over 4,000 spectators watched the new Fort Adams start point in Newport that year. A further 12,000 viewers joined a live online stream to follow the fleet’s departure.

The race introduced Forecast Time Corrected scoring in 2024 as a global first for offshore racing. This system uses forecast models to fairly compare boats of significantly different sizes. Newport bermuda race 2026 will mark the 54th race and the centenary of the CCA-RBYC partnership.

The race features several divisions to accommodate different boat types and crew arrangements. The St. David’s Lighthouse Division limits professional crew and focuses on amateur cruiser-racers. The Gibbs Hill Lighthouse Division welcomes high-performance boats sailed by professional racing crews. Double-handed teams, super yachts, and traditional spirit of tradition vessels also compete separately.

The Newport Bermuda Race holds Platinum-level certification through the Sailors for the Sea programme. This is the highest standard available under the Clean Regattas sustainability framework worldwide. Waste reduction, responsible fuelling, and environmentally friendly products are all part of race operations. The E-Steward programme encourages competitors and organisers to protect ocean health through measurable action.
