Charters Testimonials

Had a great day out, keeping up on my sailing skills with expert assistance from our skipper.

Have been chartering with HPYC for 25 years. They were the first company I chartered from after taking my Day Skipper and I keep coming back. The ownership has changed but the service and friendliness has endured. They have a great fleet of privately owned boats that come with all the home comforts.

Great communication from start to finish. All questions answered, Hand over was very smooth and Andy was super helpful

We all enjoyed our charter the boat was great clean and reliable.

Hired a yacht yesterday. Skippered by Andy. Superb day out. Sailed to Beaulieu. Had lunch and then sailed back. Can't wait until next time. 

Once again, excellent service from start to finish.

I booked early to secure my boat of choice, and it was, again, very well presented and in excellent order.

The staff are very friendly and well informed, and nothing is too much trouble to ensure you have an enjoyable, trouble-free charter.

Looking forward to planning our 2026 trip 😁

We had a great time and with Loxley B a fantastic boat! Many thanks to Hamble Point Yacht Charters - very much impressed with the boat handover handling, and you are a very friendly and supportive team 🙌 … many thanks for everything 🙏

My crew and I would like to sincerely thank you for allowing us to charter such a great and well-maintained boat this past weekend. We truly had a fantastic time on the water.

We're already discussing plans for another weekend trip and hope to charter from you again.

We chartered Sandpiper for a weekend and had a brilliant time (April 25). Thanks to Alex for all her help and proficiency!

Another excellent charter on Mischief of Hamble this time. The boat was great, and the Hamble Point charter team friendly, helpful and efficient as ever.

Charted a Bavaria 36 for a weekend trip. Last minute booking and super impressed with how we managed to sort thing out so quickly and easily after just a couple of e-mails and phone calls. Arrived late Friday after office was closed but check in pack had been left for us to pick up and overnight onboard. Boat very nicely kitted out and left Sat morning to ride Westerly tide to Lymington. Great local knowledge given during the morning walk through about where to moor and get dinner. Nice sail back on Sunday. Weather turned foul but she handled really well under full sail. Everyone on board enjoyed themselves and it's exactly what I'd hoped for from the weekend. This was first time sailing from Hamble and it's a great location to get quickly into the Solent. Definitely will be back once weather warms up and days get longer to try some longer trips. Thank you Hamble Point Charters for a great weekend !

This is truly a 5 * service. The team really looked after us both ashore on arrival and also while at sea. We were a relatively inexperienced crew but always felt the team ashore had our backs. Thoroughly recommended.

I just wanted to say Thank-you very much for the weekend charter. It was exactly what we were after (albeit cold!) plus Andy was an awesome teacher and great company. We’ll definitely be keen to book again soon!

We had a fabulous four days. Marina is ideally placed for the Solent, boat was in great condition, well equipped and a joy to sail. We were well briefed and the shore side team including the dog very friendly.

We charted one of the sailing yachts for a fantastic weekend cruise in the Solent. The boat was in superb condition and well equipped, the staff was very helpful explaining how things work on the yacht and there was also a video available with all the important information. 10/10 would recommend!

Had a fantastic week chartering Blue Otter, Alex was incredibly helpful and sent loads of information and date checking prior to booking. There was a handover video and both the handover and return were really smooth. The boat was lovely and well maintained and Lee was really helpful in recommending places to visit (and helping identify the steering issue as an autopilot takeover - doh!). Definitely will be back and would fully recommend!

We had a great time and were very happy with everything. Your team were genuinely friendly and were very helpful when we needed it. Is a big contrast to many charter companies I have dealt with in the past.

Watching the sun go down with a glass of bubbly on the deck of a sparkling yacht was unbelievable. What a treat, and a much needed change of scenery in these troubled times. We will be back for sure

Fab service, nothing too much trouble, including my daft questions. I'll be a repeat customer for sure!

Chartered bareboats with HPYC on numerous occasions most recently in Sept 2020. Always helpful and accommodating. Highly recommend.

We had a great time sailing with Lee for a few days at the beginning of September. Hamble Point Yacht Charters supplied us an impeccable 45 ft Hanse yacht, which was handled with complete mastery by Captain Lee. It was a privilege to sail with Lee, who is clearly a highly skilled professional taking great pride in his work ... but who is also a fantastic character with a great sense of humour and plenty of fun stories to keep the whole family entertained. He balances the serious side of safety and learning about sailing with a whopping dose of Continue Reading

We had a fantastic weekend sailing on Loxley B. Boat in super condition and spotlessly clean, Alex. and the team very thorough and always on hand to answer any questions. A great experience. We will be back. Thank you!

Lots of information from office with a friendly service. We selected a one of the cheaper yachts and was please with find everything work and was cleaned and tidy. We will definitely be back

This was the first time we had tried chartering and as experienced racing sailors we didn't know what to expect. Covid has closed down all our events this year so this was a chance to get afloat at least once in 2020. What a great experience and Alex and all the Hamble staff could not have been more friendly or helpful. We had a great three days and we will be back !! We would have no hesitation is recommending Hamble Point Yacht Charters

Professional, efficient and friendly. The booking and admin process was straightforward, the handover was well organised and Covid compliant. Most importantly the boat, a Sun Odyssey 37 was in great condition and very well equipped. We will definitely use this company again.
