Before booking a trip, please ensure you have read the following:
All passengers will be provided with automatic inflating lifejackets and full waterproofs. You will have a secure internal seat and be given a full safety briefing as you embark. It is extremely rare for customers to feel ill on the boat (it has been likened to road journeys in that lots of people feel sick in the car, but you never hear of anyone getting travel sick on a motorbike); however, if you are very prone to seasickness, it might be wise to take a couple of anti-sea sickness pills before you set off. Nothing can spoil any boat ride more than being sick! It is recommended that you wear high factor sun protection, even on cloudy days, and that you wear sunglasses. All year round, even in summer, it feels cooler out on the water, so make sure you layer up: in autumn, winter and spring, thermals, gloves and a hat are also a good idea! Please remember that for their enjoyment and everyone else's, trips on the RIB are not suitable for children under three years old.
Important: A trip on a RIB is an exhilarating experience. However it can sometimes be a wet and bumpy ride so it is not for everyone.
The boat is accessed via some fairly steep steps, though please let us know if you have limited mobility as we can arrange level pontoon access at high tides.

Our boat is licensed by the MCA (Maritime Coastguard Agency) to catagory 4, which means we are able to carry 12 passengers up to 20 miles from any safe harbour. We carry all the necessary safety equipment, which includes a 14 person liferaft. The boat is a 10 metre sailing catamaran designed and built by Francis Joyon. She was built to carry 12 passengers and is designed to be an exciting, fast sail boat. Being light weight with a large sail area she can sail swiftly and safely even when fully loaded.
Sailing catamarans provide huge deck area for passenger comfort, unrivelled stability and the excitement of a net trampoline at the front for those who want to experience the sensation of flying over the water.
