  • The Windermere Cup is a series of annual rowing races hosted by the University of Washington in Seattle, Washington, United States. The event is open to international teams and takes place on the first Saturday in May, in the Lake Washington Ship Canal around Portage Bay, the Montlake Cut, and Lake Washington. It is sponsored by Windermere Real Estate. The regatta was sponsored by John Jacobi, former owner and CEO of Windermere Real Estate, to bring some of the top international crews to race crews from the University of Washington. Begun in 1987 with the race won by the Soviet Union, the event draws major national and international crews each year to the Opening Day regatta where among other preliminary events, the annual Seattle Yacht Club boat parade signals the beginning of boating season in the northwest. In 2018, some 18 races from Lake Washington through Montlake Cut to Portage Bay were held. Moorage for spectator boats is available on both sides of the course in Union Bay while thousands line both sides of Montlake Cut and stand on Montlake Bridge (closed to vehicular traffic the opening day of racing) to view both the regatta and the parade of yachts that follows. On the graphic below, the starting line is to the right in Union Bay (Lake Washington) and the 2,000 meter race is run right to left, finishing at Portage Bay (Lake Union) near West Montlake Park, adjacent to the Seattle Yacht Club's main station.
