Lymington

The Main Event

Set sail for a wonderful day out on the Solent!

Your adventure begins in the harbour town of Lymington, where you’ll step aboard a sleek, modern yacht and be welcomed with a glass of Champagne. With sails up and the coastline drifting by, you’ll spend the next few hours cruising across the Solent on a beautifully maintained luxury yacht, soaking up sea air, sunshine and impressive views.

After a relaxing sail, you’ll anchor off the Isle of Wight for the highlight of the day. A freshly prepared two-course meal is served on deck, cooked by your friendly onboard crew, who also double up as your steward and chef. This is your time to relax, chat, laugh, and enjoy good food in an unforgettable setting. There’s even the chance for a refreshing swim before you set sail again.

The journey back to Lymington is just as enjoyable. You can get involved with the sailing, have a go at the helm with guidance from the professional skipper, or simply stretch out, relax and let someone else do the hard work. No sailing experience is needed at all.

This shared yacht experience runs with up to 10 guests, making it ideal for couples, solo adventurers, groups of friends, family celebrations, or even treating clients and colleagues to something a little different. The yachts themselves are a joy to be on, with spacious open-air seating, comfortable dining areas and relaxing spaces below deck.
