New entries for the 2022 Race have continued to flow in through the Entry Portal during February, and the entry list now includes 217 boats in eight divisions: St. David's Lighthouse Division (125), Finisterre (Cruising) Division (38), Gibbs Hill Lighthouse Division (28), Double-Handed Division (19), Multihull Division (3), Open Division (1), Spirit of Tradition Division (2), Superyacht (1).

The 2022 race has a cap of 220 boats, and additional entries will be put on a waiting list. Historically, some attrition takes place between entries closing on April 3rd and the start on June 17th, so race organizers expect to be able to accommodate a large number of boats initially placed on the waiting list.
