The Royal Thames Yacht Club traces its origin to 1775, when Prince Henry, Duke of Cumberland and brother to King George III, founded a sailing society along the River Thames. That year, he presented the first of seven silver cups to be raced for from Westminster Bridge to Putney Bridge and back.
Now, in 2025, the club is celebrating its 250th Anniversary with a Regatta in Cowes on the Isle of Wight, featuring prestigious events such as the IRC National Championship, the J/70 class Nationals and the RS Elite class Nationals, as well as racing for other classics, cruisers, dayboats and sportsboats.
On Friday I spoke to Tom Partridge, Rear Commodore Sailing at the Royal Thames Yacht Club, J70 sailor and Royal Thames Yacht Club member Ben Clothier, who has fashioned a unique memento for the anniversary event, and Ben Vines, who is crewing on Adam Gosling’s yacht Yes!, the defending champions in the IRC Championship.
Daily reports are on www.sail-world.com and www.yachtsandyachting.com with link to the event website.
