Hen and stag dos, birthdays, or simply a day out with the group. Above twelve people it moves to a catamaran and is quoted separately.
The normal format is a one-hour trip for a maximum of twelve people, priced per person. It works for hen and stag dos, birthdays, or simply getting the group together.
For bigger groups it moves to a catamaran, which has far more deck and takes up to a hundred passengers. That is quoted separately because the boat changes and it has to be booked ahead.
You can bring food and drink on board. The only thing we ask is no glass on deck: if it breaks, the trip ends there.
Yes, and it is the norm on a celebration trip. What to bear in mind is that inside the marina and close to the shore the volume comes down: over water, sound travels far further than it seems to from the deck.
Once you are out and at anchor, no problem. The practical tip is to bring the music already downloaded to your phone, because the mobile signal offshore is patchy and nothing kills a party faster than a playlist that stops loading.
For the format of up to twelve people, a few days is enough outside high season. In July and August, and for any weekend, allow weeks: those are the dates that go first.
For large groups on a catamaran the lead time is longer, because the boat, the catering and the final head count all have to line up. With company events or big stag and hen parties, the sensible thing is to fix the date as soon as you know it and settle the details afterwards.
If the forecast makes it impossible to go out properly, the date is changed at no charge. A celebration in a swell is never worth it: half the group has a miserable time and the trip gets remembered for the wrong reason.
A passing shower calls off nothing, and on this coast it rarely lasts long anyway. The skipper makes the decision that same morning with the forecast in front of him, and lets you know as early as possible so the group can rearrange.
Yes, as long as the boat is anchored with the engine off, and with the skipper's say-so. In fact it is what shapes the trip: you sail for a while, anchor somewhere sheltered, people swim and then you head back.
What is never done is jumping in with the boat under way or the engine running, obvious as that may sound. The skipper says when you can go in and when you have to come out, and that instruction is the one thing on board that is not up for discussion.
The booking is made in one person's name, and they confirm the date and the final head count. Splitting it afterwards is the group's business: the company does not charge twelve people separately.
That detail is worth settling before booking, because it is the usual source of trouble on a stag or hen do. Whoever organises takes on the booking, and the number of people confirmed is the number invoiced, even if somebody drops out on the day.
Up to twelve people, which is the limit of the one-hour format priced per person. It covers most hen and stag dos and birthdays, and it is the one that can be booked at the shortest notice.
Above that the boat changes. The catamaran takes far larger groups and gives deck to spare for moving about, but it stops being a standard booking: it is quoted separately, the catering is arranged, and the date has to be fixed well in advance.
The afternoon, by a distance. The last stretch before sunset is what works best for a celebration: the light is the best of the day, the heat has dropped and the mood on board is different.
The morning has its following too, particularly when the party involves swimming and people want the flattest sea. If anyone in the group is prone to seasickness, the morning trip is the sensible option even if the photographs come out worse.

Yes. The only thing we ask is no glass on deck: if it breaks, the trip ends there.
Yes, within reason and respecting the marina's hours. The larger boats have their own sound system.
For the one-hour format, a few days is enough. For a catamaran and large groups, weeks: the boat and the catering both have to be arranged.
Leave us your number and we will call you. In July and August it is worth booking ahead.
