A storm nearly stopped us, but South Coast CPS 2023 went ahead — and it was unforgettable.

When the storm threatened to cancel the event, we set up laptops to stream live on the day — not the slickest production, but proof of the resilience and determination that defined CPS 2023.

South Coast CPS 2023 showed the strength, adaptability, and ambition of the region’s property sector.

• Fresh format & new venue – Action Stations, Historic Dockyard Portsmouth
• Networking – Hundreds of industry leaders from across the South Coast came together
• Panels – Tackled the big questions shaping commercial and residential markets

Exhibitions – Showcased the businesses driving regional growth

We’re hugely grateful to our sponsors — including Spectrum, FORTH, RSK Geosciences, Vail Williams, Savills, Barratts, Gracelands, Eastleigh Borough Council, Omega RE, and The Business Magazine — whose support made it all possible.

The morning of the event will start with a breakfast at the marina and an introduction to the event and teams. This will be followed by a safety briefing on board and time spent sail training and team building, covering all aspects of sailing with each person getting the chance to try out various roles. After a race lunch on board the competition will begin – following a set course of windward and leeward legs. You will get to taste the thrill of yacht racing aboard beautiful Beneteau First 40 Racing Yachts.

Each yacht carries a professional Skipper & First Mate and can carry teams of x 8 to x 10 max. Open to experienced Sailors and Novices alike. The Yachts are high-profile yachts with international sailing pedigrees. The skippers include Round the World record holder and Olympic Champions. After racing a prize giving will take place on shore. This will be followed by a hog roast and further chance to network on the beautiful Hamble Marina Village.
