“Thank you for all your help with organising the Legal Cup. We had such a fantastic time, both on the water and at the Gala dinner on Saturday.I would like to give special feedback on our skipper, Neil. He was simply brilliant! His expertise and charisma have been highly praised by all the crew members.”


RACE FORMAT &
entertainment
To minimise disruption to the working week, the regatta runs Friday evening until Sunday afternoon. Most teams join us on Friday evening to kick-start the social activities.
You and your team, with coaching from your skipper will enjoy a morning of sail training before competing in a number of races over the two days.
Saturday evening includes networking opportunities and the fabulous gala dinner with an 80’s themed evening entertainment programme.
At the end of the regatta trophies are awarded to the winner and runners up, so there is plenty of opportunity to win some silverware.

LEARN ABOUT THE YACHT YOU’LL BE RACING on
The Oceanis 37 has an open and well laid out cockpit, with cockpit table and comfortable seating.
Each yacht is equipped with a fully battened, roller-furling headsail and optional cruising chute, keeping the sailing simple without the complex wardrobe of racing sails available on some of our other yachts. When racing between themselves they offer fun, exciting close-matched racing opportunities.
The deck gear is simple and easy to use, making the yachts perfect for novice crew giving them confidence and enjoyment in their sailing.
Below deck, our Oceanis 37’s are light, airy, spacious and very comfortable. Fitted with all the mod cons including flat screen TV and large fridge, perfect for nights spent on-board.
With three generous double cabins sleeping 6 and room for 2 in the saloon there is plenty of space for you and your guests.



SUPPORTING PLAN B
This year’s Legal Cup is proudly raising funds for Plan B Alternative Provision, a Hampshire-based nonprofit organisation. All proceeds from fundraising activities during the event will be donated to support their incredible work.
Plan B Alternative Provision works with young people in Hampshire and the surrounding South East areas of the UK, providing vital support to those who, for various reasons, are unable to engage with mainstream education.
The organisation’s philosophy is simple: when Plan A (mainstream education) fails, Plan B (alternative provision) must offer a different path.
As students thrive with Plan B, so does the organisation’s impact—spreading its ethos throughout the community and ensuring that no child is left behind.
Last year, we raised an incredible £905, and this year, we’re aiming even higher—determined to smash that total and make an even greater impact!, and this year, we’re aiming even higher—determined to smash that total and make an even greater impact!
