The Panmure Yacht & Boating Club offers the original PGH/Lynn Pacific Quarter Ton Cup for annual competition, to be conducted by PYBC. The trophy can be competed for in 2011 in a reunion regatta for yachts that were once holders of a Quarter Ton Class Rating, or a sister ship

This event is to reunite sailors and owners of yachts over two weekends of fun sailing on Olympic triangle courses, followed by a shorthanded 2 person passage series

Former class owners and crew members are invited to attend a reunion get-together at the clubrooms after the first day of Olympic races 5th March to remember old events.
