Who won the cup?

In the very late 1940s the Ashlett Regatta was held, organised, to the best of my memory, by the Fawley and Hythe Sea Scout Troops.

A good time was had by all, and was well supported by local businesses, who placed adverts in the programme.

The landlord of The Jolly Sailor at the time was a Mr Tetley, and he presented a Challenge Cup to be competed for between the two Sea Scout Troops.

I left the area in 1951, and although I have family in the area, have not lived there since.

I would be interested to know when the last Sea Scout Regatta was held at Ashlett, and also, where is the Tetley Cup now?

Is it the prize for some other competition between these two troops?
