Think a luxury Solent yacht charter is only for the rich and famous? Think again. This private full-day sailing experience lets you explore the Solent aboard a skippered luxury yacht, complete with a freshly prepared lunch served on board. Your day is an exclusive private charter for up to 10 guests, departing from Lymington on an ocean-going yacht between 40 and 50 feet. It’s just you, your group and the crew on board for a truly personal sailing experience. You will be welcomed by an experienced skipper and crew before setting sail along the stunning Solent coastline. Relax and enjoy the views or get involved as part of the crew, with guidance from your skipper throughout the day. At a scenic anchorage — often with the Isle of Wight as your backdrop — you’ll enjoy a two-course hot lunch, freshly prepared and served on board, rounding off a day of pure sailing indulgence.
