Corinthians Annual Cruise 2025 : Maine

Awards

The Nothing Award
At the closing dinner of The Corinthians’ annual cruise, the Nothing Award is bestowed upon the skipper who has, while on the cruise, performed some observable and notable misfeasance of seamanship or navigation about which it is best to remember nothing. The award itself is a large, ungainly and heavy broken-down ship’s searchlight. It can be view through two distinct lenses: a mark of opprobrium for egregious (real or perceived) seamanship actions during the Cruise or as a left-handed mark of appreciation / affection for a Corinthian who has provided entertainment to the Fleet while not quite executing an egregious faux pas.

The Something Award
Established in 2022 by then Master Bill Burnham: " I felt there needed be some recognition for seamanship, sailing acumen and dedication to helping others"

The Race Cruise Dinghy Race Trophy
The Race Cruise Dinghy Race Trophy is a mahogany sailboard rudder suitably inished and emblazoned with the Corinthian flag. First awarded in 1996, it is presented to the overall winner of the dinghy races held during the annual Corinthian cruise.
Listen to morning announcements for rules. Long Cove is our planned venue for the Dinghy Race.

The Salty Pot Award
The Salty Pot Award is a chef’s pot and is awarded for the best “offshore” recipe. A winning recipe is one which yields excellent results and is judged to be relatively easy to prepare in the galley while at sea in what could be described as adverse conditions.
The contest is scheduled for Somes Sound on 4 August 2025. Listen to the morning announcements for additional information.
