YOUR DAY

There are any number of companies offering Rib Hire in the Solent, Solent Rib Charter Experiences or Axopar Hire in the Solent but not very many offering the true classic powerboat experience of a Fairey Huntsman.

Once you are out on the water in our classic 1969 powerboat you will see and feel the difference.  Sure, you have chartered a boat to take you to the Isle of Wight or Southampton for the day but you will be the envy of all the Rib charters and Axopar charters.

Only 32 of these superb boats were ever made and only 4 are still in existence.  Your day out on the Solent couldn’t be much more special!
