With the new season on the horizon, we’re pleased to share that our 2026 sailing calendar is now live.
Alongside private charters and relaxed days on the water, this year also brings something a little different, the opportunity to get involved in racing events and more structured sailing experiences.
For many, a day sailing in the Solent is about switching off and enjoying time with friends, family, or colleagues.
But for those looking for something a little more engaging, this season offers the chance to:
• Step into a new kind of sailing experience
• Be part of a crew working together
• Enjoy the energy and focus that comes with being on the start line
It’s still everything people love about being on the water — just with an added sense of purpose.
This year, we’re offering access to a range of organised events, including racing opportunities designed to be:
• Welcoming and inclusive
• Structured but enjoyable
• A great way to experience a different side of sailing
Whether you’re completely new to racing or simply curious to try something different, these events provide a refreshing change from a traditional charter day.
We’re also pleased to be working alongside Sailing Hounds on a number of events this season.
These dates bring together like-minded people looking to:
• Enjoy time on the water
• Take on a new challenge
• Be part of a wider sailing community
Of course, private charter remains at the heart of what we do.
If racing isn’t for you, or if you’d prefer something more tailored, we continue to offer:
• Fully skippered yacht charters
• Corporate sailing days
• Relaxed, bespoke experiences on the Solent
So whether you’re looking for a calm day cruising or a more dynamic experience, there’s something this season to suit.
With a full calendar now live, it’s the perfect time to explore what’s coming up and start planning your next day on the water.

We look forward to welcoming you on board.
Not our first charter with HPYC, but as usual the staff were extremely efficient ,friendly and helpful. Out yacht (Spirit) was clean and well prepared . I recommend them highly.
The boat was very comfortable, and with good basic provisions (tea, coffee, tea towels etc.). Plus they'd made up the bunk for us which was very nice.
It was a great day thank you for providing such a terrific service and the provision of the experienced Tom at such short notice.

Alex many thanks. We had a great charter! Helen
Very well organised, professionally managed, training yacht exceptionally clean and well looked after. The course was challenging and lots of fun.
Boat was amazing, such a fabulous experience. Marina bar was lovely for both drinks and food and a great place to watch the world go by. Local village in walking distance was so quaint and perfect with a number of different pubs in such a short place and everyone was ever so welcoming. Can’t recommend highly enough! Thank you for being so patient in explaining everything and helping make our first experience of using Air BNB so enjoyable.
Excellent service and very well maintained boats Chartered a Southerly 42 from Monday lunchtime to Friday lunchtime and sailed to Yarmouth, Poole, Lymington, Newtown Creek, Bucklers Hard and Cowes. Southern Comfort sails very well and was very comfortable for six grumpy old men. Likely to book again. Hamble Point team very welcoming.
Very efficient and welcoming
