This photo, right, was taken on September 4 at the annual inter-auction house sailing regatta at Seaview, Isle of Wight. The teams represented were Sotheby’s, Bonhams, Phillips, Roseberys and a dealers’ team represented by the likes of Colnaghi and Agnews.
The event takes place on the first weekend of September every year and has been held since 1996. Mermaid charters were hired, and the event was generously hosted by the Seaview Yacht Club.
