After two races on Saturday and putting into Cowes, IOW, the crews repaired to the Island Sailing Club for a well-earned supper - and to contribute to the charity raffle. Originally begun in 1989 as PASTY (Professional Audio Sailing Trophy) with Dave Martin on the winning boat, the event was revived in 1990 and the name changed in memory of that first winner. Since the revival, all proceeds have been donated to The Elizabeth Foundation, a pre-school for profoundly deaf children, with the total raised to date just on £50,000.
