Solent Sailing Weekend and Yarmouth Festival 13 - 15 Aug 2010

Come and sail in the lovely Solent including the Yarmouth Festival.


Join Annabel J at our mooring on Friday morning** and enjoy sailing in the sheltered waters of the Solent. We will anchor for a buffet lunch before sailing on to Arrive in Yarmouth that evening.

 

We have a special invitation by the Royal Solent Yacht Club along with other Pilot Cutters and will be guests of honour at the Yarmouth Regatta.

 

At the regatta a large fleet of Classic yachts gather for a spectacular race on the Saturday.

 

Yarmouth is a most picturesque harbour and the Classic Yachts will be the star of the show.


On Friday and Saturday evenings we are guests of the Royal Solent Yacht Club Yarmouth and refreshments will be taken there *.


Be sure to bring your camera because the Pilot Cutters and Classic Yachts will be dressed overall in harbour and will make a wonderful sight racing together at close quarters.

Pilot Cutter Review

You will join Annabel J
in the beautiful Hamble river on Friday morning at 0900. After meeting the other guests and crew and safety briefings, we will set sail to learn how to sail a classic cutter.

 

Friday evening we will aim to arrive in Yarmouth where we will meet the other Classic yachts and Pilot Cutters. In Yarmouth the Pilot Cutters will all raft up together for a 'social gathering'

 

The racing is gentle and good humoured - however we always aim to win! On Saturday there will be 1 race followed by an evening social event.
