The Convoy Cup Sailpast
A tribute to the courageous merchant marine and naval convoys of World War II

The Lifeline Across the Atlantic
During World War II, merchant marine and naval convoys departing from the historic Bedford Basin acted as Europe’s lifeline, enduring treacherous journeys across the Atlantic Ocean. These voyages represented hope and resilience amidst perilous circumstances

Honouring Their Legacy Today
The annual Convoy Cup Sailpast sees recreational ship owners symbolically carry the banner of merchant marine or naval ships lost during their journeys. Departing from the Bedford Basin, they re-enact a convoy’s historic departure, honouring those who sailed before them.
