As the 400th anniversary of John Smith’s visit to the Isles of Shoals approaches, a tradition will be reborn – the Annual Gosport Regatta. You can be among the colorful fleet of yachts from up and down the New England coast sailing for the prize, or enjoying all the action from the spectator boat m/v Thomas Laighton. Racer or “afterguard,” you’ll enjoy a grand after-party at the famous Oceanic Hotel on Star Island.

The historic Gosport Regatta will sail once again from the Piscataqua River Basin. You can follow the fleet of sailing boats as they race to Star Island on board the Thomas Laighton, Gosport Regatta’s official spectator boat, and join in the celebrations marking the return of this historic race.
The first Gosport Regatta of 1874 was sponsored by John Poor, owner of the Oceanic Hotel, and was won by the famous yacht America.
