Cowes Week 2025

Published 16:40 on 14 Aug 2025

With the spectacle of many of the fleets finishing in the sunshine, downwind under spinnaker, this year's Cowes Week concluded in style.

The week saw a complete range of conditions, which were perfect for testing all the boats. Everything from big gusts and lumpy seas to flat, light airs and even a day off due to Storm Floris, which many welcomed after long, windy races on Sunday.

Overall winners

A particular congratulations to the overall winners - our very own XOD Astralita, with five firsts and a second place, which took the overall Cowes week title. The team, of John Tremlett helming with Fraser Graham and Tim Copsey, won last year's XOD title, and this year they had the added satisfaction of winning not just White Group, but the whole event!

A massive congratulations to you all!
