Skippered charters
Our skippered yachts take up to 8 clients for a days sailing. Our skippers have in-depth knowledge of the Solent and beyond and will base the day on your needs. They know where to go to have a great day!
A day's sailing on a Solent yacht charter is ideal for special occasions or corporate team building. We set sail from Town Quay in Southampton. We hoist the sails near to Mayflower and sail up Southampton Water towards Calshot Spit.
You may like to have a picnic lunch on the yacht at anchor. Depending on the weather, your skipper will suggest the best location for an anchorage. Often, we use Osbourne Bay, overlooked by Queen Victoria’s Osbourne house.
An alternative to lunch at anchor would be mooring up at West Cowes on the Isle of Wight. Mooring fees are not included in the charter and will be approximately £30 for a short-term stay. Once in West Cowes you are welcome to eat in a restaurant of your choosing.
In the afternoon, we set sail back across the Central Solent. We arrive back into Southampton Water and north to Town Quay.
