Ok, turns out some stupid by-law of Langstone, you cant sail a boat which doesnt have a PY number! As its a one off, its scuppered!

Hmm, if the club does not want to abide by the fundamental principles of the RYA Portsmouth Yardstick scheme then maybe they should stop using it. To quote:-

7.3 FOR A CLUB TO REFUSE THE ENTRY OF A BOAT BECAUSE IT HAS NO LISTED NUMBER IS CONTRARY TO THE PURPOSE OF THE PORTSMOUTH YARDSTICK SCHEME.

You also need to get permission to use a boat with any kind of foils on it.
