Reasons we love Autumn Sailing
The temperatures are getting milder but there are still a great proportion of sunny days to enjoy! So here are the reasons we love Autumn sailing:
• Ideal conditions
Sailing in the Summer is idyllic but can leave you exposed to the sun, and the humidity can become uncomfortable when trying to sail longer passages or relax with family and friends. With a gentle breeze hiding the intensity of the heat and UV rays beaming down sun stroke becomes a risk. Autumn temperatures are becoming milder but you can still enjoy some beautifully bright sunny days without the heat!
• Stunning scenery
Autumn is undeniably one of the most beautiful seasons,[...]
Corporate Sailing Days
Bring your team and learn how to sail a yacht in the Solent! Organise a corporate day your co-workers or clients won't forget! Our corporate sailing days offer the ideal mix of sailing, informal racing, and fully catered breakfast and lunch included.*
Sailing is well known for strong parallels to the business world; success is based on a common goal, clear communication, understanding of your own role and an ability to interact with the rest of the team to achieve the maximum performance.
The emphasis of our team building sailing days is on active learning and taking part, with everyone encouraged to participate in learning the ropes (quite literally) and taking[...]

Our first dates for this course are happening 20-21 August 2022! We are excited to share that we have partnered up with Unity Sailing and will be offering "Sunfast Training Days" for sailors keen to try out, train, and familiarise themselves with a well-specified Sunfast 3200 racer.
This course is ideal for all sailors along with skippers who would like to progress onto training and racing with their own team on a performance racer.
The Sunfast 3200 is an outstanding yacht, perfect for double-handed to fully crewed racing. It's safe, fast, and fun for both inshore and offshore racing. The progressive sailing package is all about upskilling so that you can get to know the boat, practice drills, and[...]

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!
Just back from a lovely week in the Solent. Great service from HPYC from first inquiry through to return handover. Very straightforward to deal with, and the yacht was in excellent condition. We've chartered from many companies in the UK and abroad and the attention to detail (and flawless inventory!) was second to none. Everything about the yacht and equipment had clearly been well looked after and was in immaculate condition. Great service, will use again.
Always very friendly service, and well-maintained yachts. Easy check-in and checkout. Will be back...
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!
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 amusement and good cheer. We sailed the Solent in some decent seas, visited Bucklers Hard on the banks of the Beaulieu River and learned lots about British nautical history. Our boys started somewhat of a fishing trend catching bass off the back of the boat in Portsmouth and we would love to sail with Lee again in the future. The man truly knows his stuff, maintained the boat impeccably and went to every effort to ensure that we had a great time. Many thanks to “Shippers” and Hamble Point Charters. We’ll be back.
Chartered bareboats with HPYC on numerous occasions most recently in Sept 2020. Always helpful and accommodating. Highly recommend.
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.
