Entries are now open for Cowes Week 2022.
Those behind the annual sailing regatta have also revealed some of their plans for this year's event.
On the water, more races will start off the Royal Yacht Squadron line.
Some courses will be shortened and a new design class has been added.
The Sonata will feature, to reflect its strong activity in Cowes over the past few years, the Cowes Week team said.

On shore, we are told to expect a Cowes Week Opening Party on Saturday, July 30, with the return of DJ Mark Covell.
