Classic Sailing Holidays and Pilot Cutter Racing from the Solent to Cornwall, the Scilly Isles, Brittany, France and the Channel Isles.

Yarmouth Pilot Cutter Regatta

Come and sail to the picturesque port of Yarmouth to race against the mightiest Pilot Cutters on the South Coast.


Join Annabel J at our mooring on the Hamble at 0900 on Friday Morning** and sail down to Yarmouth learning how to get the best possible boat speed and sail configurations . On Friday evening we meet up with the other Pilot Cutters and their crews ready for the racing the following day.
Over the weekend we are guests of the Royal Solent Yacht Club Yarmouth where refreshments will be taken.
Be sure to bring your camera because the Pilot Cutters will be dressed overall in harbour and will make a wonderful sight racing together at close quarters.
On Saturday and Sunday we take part in spectacular racing to enjoy sailing in company with the most famous of all classic yachts - the Pilot Cutters.

There will be the Prize giving on Sunday evening followed by a later start on Monday and a cruise back to the Hamble.
What a weekend!

**For those who would rather join on Thu evening B&B is available on Annabel J. Please contact us for details
