We had arranged to meet up with Graham and Wendy in Yarmouth. PYRA had a race to there on the Saturday morning. The tides from Cowes to Yarmouth were foul in the morning but we had to go come what may. We tried sailing as there was a decent amount of wind but tidal flow kept putting us back in the same place. Eventually we gave up and motored in order to get there on time.
At Yarmouth I blagged my way into the middle of the PYRA fleet as they moored up and was soon recognised by a few of the boat owners. I'll have to join next year before they realise I'm not a member. Went to a barbeque in the evening at the local sailing club. The PYRA crews drank the place dry, but they were happy with the revenue.
