About Us
Having been established in The Solent with our Rib Charter business we decided to expand the fleet and have added a state of the art Axopar 28 Cabin Boat that is now available for skippered and bareboat charters.
All our skippers hold a Commercially Endorsed Advanced Powerboat Licence with all the relevant safety certificates including Sea Survival, First Aid and VHF use, which have been all certified by the Royal Yachting Association (RYA). Rest assured you are in safe hands, but if you have any queries then we will be happy to discuss these with you.
The main event is of course “Thalassa” our Axopar 28 Cabin. It has a 300hp Mercury Outboard engine and can reach top speeds of up to 45 knots whilst having the style, quality, comfort and performance that the Axopar brand is well known for. “Thalassa” is based at Port Solent, in Portsmouth Harbour. There are on site amenities as well as plenty of free parking. Don’t worry if this location is not convenient as we can also arrange other pick up points if preferred, for example Gunwharf Quays, Gosport, Hamble Point Marina or most other marinas in The Isle of Wight and Solent area. The Axopar is coded to hold 6 people including the skipper. If you have a larger group panic not, we can arrange multiple boats whether it is a second Axopar or one of our Ribeye 785s which are coded for 11 people including the skipper.
Solent Boat Charter offers a journey to meet all your needs in and around The Solent and The Isle of Wight area. We enjoy creating tailor made trips as well as offer some most common requested trips from 4 hours to a full day on the water. Our boats are the perfect way to create memories on the water for small or larger groups, a stag or hen party, corporate events or a family day out. We will be sure to create a trip that suits your personal requirements.
Taking a journey by boat offers a completely different perspective, you can discover places that are only accessible by water, you can view the shore line and its beauty in all seasons, it allows you to see a place from other angles and arrive at your destination in style.
Your journey is our destination.
