It is claimed that the Romans could wade across the Solent at low tide, but these days you need a boat, and the easiest, safest, most practical way of doing this for most people is to hire or charter a boat of some kind, and with Marine Charter, you really are spoilt for choice. Whether you want a day boat for a memorable family holiday, a Solent stag party, an unforgetable social or team building experience, a romantic cruise, a white knuckle ride, or even a full-on Solent corporate event (during Cowes Week possibly), or whatever, then you can charter a yacht, powerboat or rib to suit your desires, objectives and budget. And when you've chosen your boat, you can choose whether to sail it yourself with bareboat charter, or let a local expert take all the responsibility with skippered charter.

The Solent is a major shipping route, cruise liners, container ships and The Royal Navy. When you add in the hovercraft,dinghies, windsurfers, kitesurfers, jetskis etc., the variety of vessels and sailing companions to race with, or just gaze at.

But man does not live by sailing and scenery alone. He needs entertainment. food, drink and shopping, and there are abundant choices for all of these in Southampton, Portsmouth, and all of the other towns, villages, harbours and marinas that border the Solent, and no meal or drink tastes better than after a great days sailing. The list of attractions is endless, and we haven't even mentioned the spectacular views of the Solent from the Spinnaker Tower, the World Heritage Site of the nearby Jurassic Coast, or the fact that you are only about 12 hours sailing from France.
