RAYC Offshore Regatta 2020
The RAYC Regatta 2020 took place at Yarmouth from Friday 4th to Sunday 6th September hosted by the Royal Solent Yacht Club.
Eight yachts participated. Three excellent courses were set on the Saturday, with tough, variable conditions in light airs in the morning and strong tides. The wind filled-in suitably for two excellent races in the afternoon.
A passage race on Sunday back to Gosport completed the Regatta.
