The Spirit of Tradition Class was established worldwide
in Antigua for vessels recently built along “classic”
lines using modern techniques and materials.
Yachts in this class must have a “look” that is true to
a traditional design and must demonstrate excellent craftsmanship
and tradition both on deck and in the hull. They may however, have
modern underbodies and appendages and use modern technology in their
rigs.
The Committee will limit the number of entries for this class. We
will accept yachts that are exceptional and those whose owners have
gone the extraordinary lengths to ensure that their vessel maintains
the beauty and lines characteristic of fine yachts built in the past.
All yachts wishing to enter this class must complete a Pre-Entry Form
and include photographs of hull rig and deck layouts, for approval
into this class. After the yacht is accepted, an Official Entry Form
will be sent to you by the Committee. The Spirit of Tradition Class
entries must be measured and have a current CSA measurement certificate.
The Spirit of Tradition Class has a trophy structure of it's own.
The legendary yacht Ticonderoga sponsors the trophy for First Overall
in this class.
It is the Regatta Committee’s hope that by creating the Spirit
of Tradition Class, we can continue to encourage the future building
of exceptional yachts that keep the classic traditions alive.
Truly Classic has been to the Antigua Classic Yacht
Regatta many times and is the epitome
of a “Spirit of Tradition” yacht. Designed by Andre Hoek
and built by Klass Bood in 1994,
this 64-ft. cutter-rigged sloop won 1st place in Spirit of Tradition
B in 2001
