Since the first Harvard-Yale boat race, according to figures compiled by the Official Program for the race, both Harvard and Yale have won twenty-five regattas. Of the 57 regattas in which both Universities have competed, ten have included other colleges and of these regattas Harvard has won four and Yale one. On the Worcester course, which was used from 1859 to 1870, the University won seven races against Yale's two. At New London where the annual regatta has been held since 1878 the University has taken 15 races whereas Yale is credited with 21 victories. At present the University holds the record for the New London course with time of 25 minutes, 2 seconds, made in 1916.
As is shown by the differences in times, the courses were in length, two-miles, four miles, and some slightly less than four miles. The following are the results of the regattas since 1852, giving the year, winner and time in order:
