Have been chartering with HPYC for 25 years. They were the first company I chartered from after taking my Day Skipper and I keep coming back. The ownership has changed but the service and friendliness has endured. They have a great fleet of privately owned boats that come with all the home comforts.

Hired a yacht yesterday. Skippered by Andy. Superb day out. Sailed to Beaulieu. Had lunch and then sailed back. Can't wait until next time.

Once again, excellent service from start to finish.
I booked early to secure my boat of choice, and it was, again, very well presented and in excellent order.
The staff are very friendly and well informed, and nothing is too much trouble to ensure you have an enjoyable, trouble-free charter.
Looking forward to planning our 2026 trip 😁

Another excellent charter on Mischief of Hamble this time. The boat was great, and the Hamble Point charter team friendly, helpful and efficient as ever.

Charted a Bavaria 36 for a weekend trip. Last minute booking and super impressed with how we managed to sort thing out so quickly and easily after just a couple of e-mails and phone calls. Arrived late Friday after office was closed but check in pack had been left for us to pick up and overnight onboard. Boat very nicely kitted out and left Sat morning to ride Westerly tide to Lymington. Great local knowledge given during the morning walk through about where to moor and get dinner. Nice sail back on Sunday. Weather turned foul but she handled really well under full sail. Everyone on board enjoyed themselves and it's exactly what I'd hoped for from the weekend. This was first time sailing from Hamble and it's a great location to get quickly into the Solent. Definitely will be back once weather warms up and days get longer to try some longer trips. Thank you Hamble Point Charters for a great weekend !

This is truly a 5 * service. The team really looked after us both ashore on arrival and also while at sea. We were a relatively inexperienced crew but always felt the team ashore had our backs. Thoroughly recommended.

We had a fabulous four days. Marina is ideally placed for the Solent, boat was in great condition, well equipped and a joy to sail. We were well briefed and the shore side team including the dog very friendly.

We charted one of the sailing yachts for a fantastic weekend cruise in the Solent. The boat was in superb condition and well equipped, the staff was very helpful explaining how things work on the yacht and there was also a video available with all the important information. 10/10 would recommend!
