Classic power craft, including boats powered by steam, will be able to grace the harbour and participate in the Sunday morning parade.
The three days will provide the opportunity to participate in competitive racing in the Carrick Roads and Falmouth Bay and will be topped by the spectacular parade of sail on Sunday morning. Making a welcome return in 2022 will be the popular Classic Maritime Village on Custom House Quay, the rowing and sculling competition on Saturday off the Royal Cornwall Yacht Club and the small boat parade on Sunday afternoon. Participants will also be invited to two receptions and two prize-givings.
