IOD World Championship Comes to Marblehead

62nd Class Championship Slated for June 2026

The 2026 International One Design World Championship makes its way back to Marblehead in June, 2026. It is the Marblehead Fleet’s turn to host the regatta, and we are looking forward to welcoming competitors from the World Class Fleets for a week of racing in our wonderful open ocean sailing area. 

The dates of the event are slightly in flux – to better support the IOD Fleets in Norway and Sweden, the Marblehead team is attempting to reschedule the event one week earlier than originally announced.  If all of the details can be sorted out, the 2026 World Championship will move to June 13-June 19 2026.  Expect a formal announcement of the regatta dates in October 2025. 

Please return to this space for a regatta FAQ (expected to be posted in October 2025) and the Notice of Race (expected to be published in December 2025/January 2026).
