2023 HIGHLIGHTS

The world’s top match racing skippers return to Long Beach April 24 to 28, 2024 for the 59th Congressional Cup. This World Championship regatta presented by Long Beach Yacht Club is a premier event on the prestigious World Match Racing Tour.

The roster for this year’s Congressional Cup follows an unprecedented demand by eligible match racing teams from around the globe. The oldest continuously-held sailing match race regatta in the world, the Congressional Cup is the only match race regatta in the United States to qualify for World Championship status from World Sailing.

Since 1965 the world’s top ranked skippers have come here to compete for the esteemed Congressional Cup and the Crimson Blazer, which is yacht racing’s equivalent to the Masters Tournament Green Jacket: a symbol of victory in one of the most prestigious yacht racing events in the world, and a gateway to the America’s Cup.
