The Opera House Cup Regatta is a cherished tradition, held on the third Sunday of August on Nantucket. The 38th Annual Opera House Cup Regatta will be Sunday, August 15, 2010.   The Opera House Cup Regatta was the first all-wooden, single-hulled classic boat regatta on the East Coast, and it attracts some of the finest sailboats in the country.    The Opera House Cup Regatta is proud to be a Clean Regatta as certified by Sailors for the Sea.

New for 2010 -- the Opera House Cup is joining the other regattas in the Panerai Classic Yachts Challenge and is switching from our proprietary rating system to the CRF rating system.   All 2010 OHC participating boats must have a current CRF rating.    Details for getting the rating are explained on the OHC NOR and registration pages.   

We are proud to welcome back our Opera House Cup title sponsor, the luxury Italian watch manufacturer, Panerai.   The OHC Regatta and Awards Party benefits Nantucket Community Sailing.
