MDL Marinas Returns to Sponsor Key Yachting's 2025 J-Cup Regatta

In continued support of our Hamble Point Marina tenant and regatta host Key Yachting, we are pleased to confirm that MDL Marinas will once again sponsor the UK’s J-Cup Regatta for 2025.

Taking place from the Royal Southern Yacht Club in Hamble, Southampton between Friday 20th and Sunday 22nd June 2025, this annual multi-class regatta is organised exclusively for yachts from the J/Boats brand. The event features three exhilarating days of racing in the iconic sailing waters of The Solent.

All J/Boat models are invited to compete, with one-design racing for three classes and IRC Racing for mixed fleets. The exciting and competitive regatta will incorporate both windward-leeward and round-the-cans racing.

As part of our continued support, MDL will once again be providing the ever-popular J-Cup caps to every participating sailor - a highly prized keepsake among competitors.

"Once again, we are grateful to MDL for their unwavering support of the J-Cup Regatta,” says Bill Stringer, Key Yachting’s Commercial Director. “Their sponsorship continues to elevate the event and adds a crowd-pleasing gesture with the generous provision of the J-Cup caps for each sailor taking part. We couldn't ask for a better partner, and we look forward to toasting to a fantastic regatta together."

“At Key Yachting, we pride ourselves on creating an unforgettable experience for sailors of all levels, where passion for the sport and camaraderie come together on the water," adds Stringer.

We’re delighted to once again sponsor the J-Cup Regatta. This event offers sailors of all abilities an opportunity to get out on the water and enjoy the sport they’re so passionate about. We’re also proud to support Key Yachting, an integral part of our marina community.

“The J-Cup is more than just a regatta - it’s a celebration of sailing excellence, spirited competition, and camaraderie. With incredible coastal courses, expert race management, and lively social events, it continues to be a standout in the UK sailing calendar”.

Alongside the packed racing schedule, the 2025 J-Cup will include daily prize-givings and lively shoreside entertainment.
