Port Hamble hosts largest South Coast CPS regatta yet

This year's event was the largest and most successful yet, with teams from the south coast's property and construction sector competing in an afternoon of racing.

Barratt Homes Southampton Division, sailing on the First 40 yacht 'Dusty P', was crowned the overall winner.

South Coast CPS on 'SFIDA' and Pegasus Group took second place and line honours respectively, while Pangea Insurance finished last.

A two-minute silence was held at midday for VE Day and in memory of Mark Vincent, a previous participant who passed away in 2023.

The event was organised by South Coast CPS director, Lucy Richmond, who said: "I wanted to create a one-day event that everyone can take part in right in the heart of the south coast.

"It’s a fast-growing event for good reason – everyone always leaves with a smile on their face."
