About
The Lipton Cup Regatta
A Regatta for everyone - yes kids there's an OTB section!
Be the best in your class
Last year over 50 keelboats and 60 OTB boats took part! We want to see more competitors this year.
It's a fun, affordable weekend of sailing for racing, cruising and classic yachts, sportsboats and trailable yachts, and off-the-beach boats.
The sailing program caters for all sailing enthusiasts, offering high-quality racing for the serious racing fraternity and an enjoyable weekend's sailing for the cruising boats.
The northern waters of Port Phillip offer excellent sailing, dramatic views of the city of Melbourne, and fresh summer seabreezes.
After sailing, relax to live music on the lawn at the Royal Yacht Club of Victoria while enjoying the warm, friendly atmosphere and stunning views.
The Regatta is conducted by the Royal Yacht Club of Victoria in partnership with the Williamstown Sailing Club and the Port Melbourne Yacht Club.
