Sailing Day

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.

Bulldog Military Plane Flying Challenge for Two
If straightforward flying seems a bit tame, try this airborne navigational adventure, strapped in to an ex-military Bulldog to complete a series of quick-fire missions with some breathtaking aerobatic manoeuvres along the way. Your experience begins with a flight and safety briefing from your ex-military instructor before you get kitted out in a flying suit. Then you'll take to the air in the Bulldog, sitting side by side with your instructor during a thrilling aerobatic flight demonstration. Next you'll take the controls of the plane yourself to complete a series of navigational tasks, finding a set of targets whilst maintaining your heading and speed. At each target you'll circle once to get the info you need to complete your mission. Depending on how well you do, your instructor might give you some additional tasks at short notice. Back on the ground, there'll be a full debrief and you'll get a copy of your map with headings, speeds and altitudes to take home.

Zap Cat Experience for Two
You're into speed, you're into extreme, and you don't mind getting really wet? Head out onto the water in a Zap Cat! They're lightweight inflatable catamaran hulls with racing engines attached, which makes them amazingly stable and secure, even at high speeds, round tight corners and in conditions from ranging from complete calm to large breaking surf (in fact, they were developed originally from life-saving surf rescue craft). Your experience will begin with a briefing on safety and handling, before you head out onto the water with your instructor. He or she will show you exactly what this fantastic craft can do - so prepare for the ride of your life as you speed along, pull tight manoeuvres and hit big air jumps. Depending on the weather and at the instructor's discretion, you might also get the chance to take the helm and try your hand at powering the Zap Cat across open water. There's a RIB powerboat on standby acting as a support boat, and you'll get a thrilling ride on this too.

Family Honda Powerboating
Looking for something different for the family? Blow away those cobwebs with a vengeance in a powerboat experience round the south coast - it's wet, it's windy and loads of fun! The Honda Formula 4-Stroke (HF4S) championship is the most exciting offshore powerboat series in the world - these boats are responsive and manoeuvrable and what more perfect way of keeping the kids occupied at the weekend? You'll start off with a safety briefing and introduction to the boat, then it's time for everyone to get changed into the provided safety gear and racing team kit (a snap of which makes a great screensaver). You and your family willl head out onto Southampton water with an expert driver (usually a current or veteran racer) who'll put the boat through her paces while you hang on tight. You get tuition in how to handle the boat and then about 15 minutes hands-on driving (at the skipper's discretion). The boat operates within Southampton Water and, weather permitting, goes out onto the Solent.
