Family Watersports Day - Sailing, Windsurfing and Kayaking
Enjoy life on the ocean wave with an introduction to three fun-packed watersports activities in this family experience. First up it's dinghy sailing and the chance to helm your own boat. With expert instruction you will be off in a matter of minutes and whether you plan to glide across the water or crash through ocean swells, you'll have great fun in these little boats. If you managed not to capsize in those, then move on to getting wet! After a quick lesson on the dry land simulator, go out on the windsurfers, combining style with speed as you race across the water (or combining chaos with flailing limbs as you fall in ungracefully!). After lunch move onto the kayaks. These are great fun, anyone can do it... and if it's that easy to get going, then it's the perfect vehicle to challenge your family to a race!

Wakeboarding for Ten
Wakeboarding: a sport so cool, lots of people have yet to learn about it. In fact it's the fastest growing watersport in the country. It's like a cross between water-skiing, snowboarding and surfing (it used to be called skurfing, but that sounded silly). You're pulled across the water by hanging onto a cable, but unlike water-skiing you're attached to a single wide board and it's also a bit slower. So it's perfect for anyone who wants to try a new sport and doesn't mind getting very wet indeed. After a full safety briefing, you'll be on the water and round the cable. You'll start off knee-boarding, which will help you get to grips with the basics and put the theory into practice. The tricky bit is taking corners, but once you've got the hang of that you'll be up on your feet and whizzing around on your wakeboard in no time, experiencing the adrenaline rush of flying across the water. Not even the occasional dunking will wipe the smile off your face.

Sailing Day
Splice the main brace, shiver me timbers and other such nautical nonsense... there'll be none of that on this experience, which offers an introduction to sailing in a friendly and informal atmosphere aboard the 34ft yacht Half Nelson. It's great fun - exhilarating and relaxing at the same time, and the best way to experience the beauty and freedom of the open sea. After coffee, biscuits and a safety briefing, your Yachtmaster skipper will introduce you to the basics of sailing and in no time at all you'll be sailing down to the Hamble or Cowes. After a lunch break ashore you'll be back on the water, and if you're feeling energetic you can put theory into practice and take an active part in the afternoon's sailing on the Solent or Southampton Water. If you'd rather, you can just sit back in the cockpit and let the crew do the hard work while you relax and enjoy an afternoon at sea. All refreshments aboard are also included. All in all a very civilised approach to a wonderful pastime.

Kids Rally Driving plus High Speed Ride
So you're not old enough to drive yet? Well you are with this brilliant experience, specially designed for 10 to 17 year olds who just can't wait to get behind the wheel. Whether or not you've driven a car before, this is your chance to get the hang of driving in a purpose-built open-topped Ford Rally Sport Trainer - designed with safety in mind to give you the perfect balance of power and control. You'll start with a full briefing about the car, when you'll be taught about clutch control, steering and braking techniques before hitting the track. Then you can take the RST on a test stage with an expert instructor calling the corners as you power your way around, perfecting those sideway slides as seen on TV! You will be marked on your overall car control and the person with the highest scores will be entered on the website 'Hall of Fame'. Finish with three high-speed laps driven by an instructor in a Focus Diesel Rally car. You don't need any driving experience - but you do need to be a speed freak!
