Join us for some great Day Sailing in the Solent!

Our base at Royal Clarence Marina in Gosport we are fully accessible to the Solent.

From here we can sail west to Cowes, skirting the banks of the Beaulieu River and stopping for tea near Osborne House, or we can sail east into Chichester Harbour and visit the delights of Bosham and Itchenor. Are you part of a group who'd like to try sailing?

Do you have a staff team who deserve a day out of the office?

Would your friends or colleagues like to try something new?

Is your business flourishing and you'd like to thank your clients?

Tell us what you are looking for and we would be happy to come up with a Day Sailing Programme to fit your individual needs- and your budget!

Our Day Sailing is for groups of any size (from 2 upwards).

Your group will have exclusive use of our yachts and of our qualified skippers/instructors, who encourage active participation from those who want to.

Our Day Sailing means home cooking which can include breakfasts, lunches and our famous chocolate cake for afternoon tea.

Day Sailing with two or more yachts means you can have some FUN races (big emphasis on the word fun!).

Waterproofs and safety gear are supplied. Day sailors just need to bring warm clothes, old shoes, camera and sun tan cream!

One Option Amongst Many.....

A group of six work colleagues who are being treated to Day Sailing by their boss, for boosting business to an all time record, may start their day with coffee and croissants on board.

Following a safety briefing by the skipper the group set sail on the westerly tide for Bucklers Hard in the Bealieau River. The prevailing south westerly wind means there is much for the willing crew members to do and all quickly become familiar with the instructions from the helmsperson 'Ready About, Lee Ho'.

After lunch alongside the famous Master Builder pub the crew are ready for action once more. Confidence increases and even the more reserved members of the group are encouraged to take the helm. Not one can escape the indescribable sense of freedom and exhilaration that day sailing brings.

A short stop at anchor at Osborne House for a well needed cup of tea and our famous Dream or Two chocolate cake, and we're ready to raise the anchor, returning to the marina at Gosport with glowing faces from the fresh sea air.

There is a real sense of achievement, once the yacht is safely moored up.

The champagne is opened and everyone enjoys a drink while reliving the excitement of the day!

We will be happy to discuss your individual requirements and to provide you with costings for day sailing, whatever your budget.
