We are a husband and wife team who, over the last 12 years, have developed entertaining day cruises with our clients in the Solent.

We started chartering our 38ft yacht when one of our friends wanted to create an informal, intimate day's entertainment for six of his top clients. The day was a great success with all, and by word of mouth, brought more guests year on year, with a very high level of repeat business.

We organise tailor made day cruising in the Solent, with good quality food and drinks to suit our clients' wishes, on board or ashore. Many of our guests like to helm or help with the sailing, which they are most welcome to do. Some of our guests have had their first experience of sailing as a result.

We have entertained many guests on board, some two or three times each season, and without exception, they have all enjoyed themselves enormously. These guests are mainly from the city and are senior personnel from organisations such as Lloyds of London, Lloyds TSB, other merchant banks and stockbroking firms.

We also offer private charters for families and their friends, sailing tuition and navigation instruction. For insurance purposes we have to limit the number of people on board to NINE, which means that with the two of us, there are SEVEN places left for you and your guests.
