2022 Morgan Cup
August 12 to 14, 2022
Newport, R.I.
The 19th running of the Morgan Cup Team Race will take place August 12-14, with an optional practice day August 11. Teams will compete in three-boat teams with 3 or 4 sailors per boat, a total team weight limit of 2,100 pounds, and at least 4 of each gender per team. Per the Notice of Race, there is no requirement for team members to be from the same club or organization, but each skipper must be a current member of their member national authority.
Entry is by invitation. The winning teams from the 2021 Halloween Team Race, Lee Trophy, Morgan Cup and Soiland Cup are automatically invited. (The 2021 Baldwin Cup was not run so can't be counted for this year.) Other teams may complete the Request for Invitation form which must be submitted along with a team resume no later than February 21, 2022.
The Morgan Cup was presented by the members of the New York Yacht Club to J. P. Morgan as a token of esteem and a mark of appreciation of his service to the club as Commodore, 1919-1921, and is dedicated as the perpetual award for the winning team of the New York Yacht Club Morgan Cup Team Race Invitational.
