Private bareboat charter gives you the flexibility to go where you want when you want. Whether it is to explore the beautiful east coast of England or further afield, there is a real treat in store for you when holidaying with us.

Our sail charter fleet comprises two luxurious well equipped new yachts. The beautiful real wood interiors give a classy feel to the cabins. All come with central heating, a chart plotter and an electric windlass as standard and our charter prices are inclusive of gas and wet weather gear hire.

Our yachts are immaculately presented and we intend to keep them that way, which is why you will need to be qualified and/or have considerable sailing experience to charter one of our boats.

If you are not an experienced sailor, or you would prefer to have someone else take charge, we can provide a fully qualified sailing instructor to skipper for you.

What to wear
