A roundup of day 5 action at the 2026 North Sails Cowes Week. The glamour race of the day was for the prestigious Britannia Cup for the biggest boats in the regatta.
It’s big boat day, Britannia Cup, and as ever it delivers the big breeze . . . It is really by seconds. It’s almost like Formula 1, you know.
Long beats against the tide to the west for the 17 strong fleet suited the TP52s, which took the top four slots overall.
Karl Kwok’s TP52 Beau Geste (Hong Kong) were the victors, claiming the 2026 Britannia Cup ahead of James Neville’s Ino Veritas, Tony Langley’s Gladiator and Malcolm Offord’s Braveheart.
