Skippered Yacht Charter in the Solent
Looking to enjoy a day on the water without the responsibility of skippering yourself? With our skippered yacht charter service, you select your preferred sailing yacht or motorboat from our fleet, and we provide a professional skipper — along with additional crew if required — to ensure a seamless and memorable experience.
Why Choose a Skippered Charter?
A skippered charter is ideal if you:
-
Want to celebrate a special occasion without taking the helm
-
Lack the experience or qualifications to skipper a yacht yourself
-
Are new to sailing and want a relaxed introduction
-
Don’t have a full crew available to sail with you
-
Would like extra support for a new challenge, such as a Channel crossing, night sail, or a circumnavigation of the Isle of Wight
-
Are organising a corporate sailing day or team-building event near Southampton
Whether you're looking for a fun day out, a learning opportunity, or just want to relax and let someone else do the sailing, we tailor the experience to suit your needs.
Your Choice of Yacht
Choose from our diverse fleet of privately owned and meticulously maintained sailing yachts. Available in a range of sizes and styles, each vessel is fully equipped and presented to the highest standards.
Before your trip, we'll talk through your goals for the charter and understand the makeup of your group. This ensures we pair you with a skipper who suits your needs and sailing style. If you’d like, your skipper can even call you in advance to get a feel for what you’re hoping to achieve during your time on the water.
Your skipper can take on the role that works best for you:
-
Offer full control while you skipper, providing guidance as needed
-
Help everyone on board get involved and learn
-
Quietly manage the yacht while you and your guests sit back and enjoy the experience
Not sailed in a while? We can also arrange a half-day skipper hire at the start of your charter to refresh your confidence before continuing bareboat.
Please note: When hiring a skipper, you are responsible for providing food and drink, and for overnight trips, a berth on the yacht or accommodation ashore.
