The New York Yacht Club is pleased to host the newly created event: the NYYC International Women’s Championship. This regatta is a female-only regatta that will be run in the Club’s fleet of IC37s, September 12 to 19, 2026.

Teams of 9 or more sailors are invited to request an invitation regardless of country, yacht club affiliation or amateur status. Like other provided-boat events hosted by the New York Yacht Club, the International Women’s Championship will feature the ultimate level playing field, a combination of provided one design boats and sails maintained to the highest racing standard with uniform rig tuning and on-the-water umpiring. The winning skipper will receive a Rolex timepiece.

The event features two days of mandatory practice and five days of racing. Impressive shore-side social activities on the new Harbour Court waterfront along with a formal prize giving banquet will create a truly memorable regatta experience. Click here for the event announcement press release.
