	Cutty Sark Tall Ships' Race - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Cutty Sark Tall Ships' Race is a long-distance race for sailing ships.
		The races were originally sponsored by Berry Brothers and Rudd - marketers of Cutty Sark Scotch Whisky (the Cutty Sark being their trade mark as well as a preserved tea clipper lying at Greenwich in London).
		The race is held annually in European waters and consists of two racing legs of several hundred nautical miles, and a "cruise in company" between the legs.

	Cutty Sark
		The Cutty Sark (Scots for "short shirt") was one of the last clipper ships to be built, and the only one surviving to the present day, preserved in dry dock at Greenwich, England.
		She was destined for the China tea trade, at that time an intensely competitive race across the globe from China to London, with immense profits to the ship to arrive with the first tea of the year.
		Cutty Sark is also the brand name of a type of whisky.

	Cutty Sark Tall Ships' Races

		The Cutty Sark Tall Ships' Races are organised by the ISTA's Racing committee.
