The Trust’s activities in 2022 centred around sponsoring a complete crew (8 people) aboard STV Pegasus for the 2022 Classic Channel Regatta in early July. The Sponsorship took the form of a direct payment to the Island Trust of £10,950 by the CYSF and the waiving of entry fees by the Regatta itself. The voyage consisted of two days racing in Dartmouth, an overnight passage race to Paimpol in France and a race around the Island of Brehat. Pegasus also joined in the social events of the week. 

## **Highlighted extract from the Skipper of Pegasus on its participation** 

_Thank you for an enjoyable week. I, my staff and the young people all had a great time, I can say that without a doubt. They all said how they would do this again. As always, the trips across the channel were a highlight. From the many dolphins that came to say hello and the glassy calm sea to the drifting through the night spotting shooting stars. For many, our time in Paimpol was special, the reception we got during our arrival leading the parade in, and just a chance for these young people to stop and explore a little bit of France was very special to them. The sail home was also cracking, averaging 8 knots and finally everyone was able to see Pegasus sailing at her best - we just wished we could have done more of that during the week!_ 

_Thank you again for organising such a fantastic opportunity, it really has had an impact on these young people. Thank you for all your support_ 

## **Highlighted extract from a report from the mother of one of the Crew of Pegasus.** 

_Just a quick hello attached to an enormous Thank you for all your kindness and belief in Young Carers._ 

_My son’s granny and I are down at Plymouth for the weekend waiting for our son to return on Monday from his voyage to France. He is on Pegasus and having, truly, the time of his life._ 

_He has just called us and I've never heard him so confident and excited ever. He said... Mum I'm loving in every single moment. He also asked to do the 12-4am night watch so he could see the night sky from the sea._ 

Note This placement came from the CYSF’s liaison with the Royal Southampton’s Youth Sailing Trust.
