Organise a Stag or Hen Do
RIBs are a brilliant daytime activity during a stag or hen do. During a day or half day charter you can go a long way at speed …
Stag ideas
For the boys we'll take you out on a whistle-stop tour of the Solent. Your first pick-up is at 1000 from Southampton's Ocean Village. We'll take you for high speed blast down the Solent and drop you off in Yarmouth on the Isle of Wight for half an hour. Next it's onto Lymington for another 30 minutes to have a quick look around the village. Next it's a high speed ride back to Cowes for a lunch-time stop (there are several venues we can discuss with you beforehand). Afterwards it's all board the RIB again and quick stop in the sailing village of Hamble before we blast you back up Southampton Water to Ocean Village for around 1630.
RIBs and Golf! Another idea is to consider organising a half-day RIB blast in the morning, before heading off for a round of golf in the afternoon.
Hen ideas
For the girls we recommend something a little more refined but no less fast! … How about a blast in the morning to visit Gunwharf Quays. We'll drop you off for an hour or two giving you the chance to visit Spinnaker Tower or indulge in a spot of shopping. We’ll then go for another blast to "do lunch" in a lively village such as Cowes or Lymington. The RIB can leave you there for the afternoon or pick you up later for a final blast and drop you back off at the town of your choice for you to freshen up and continue your evening in style!
The above are suggestions – if you have ideas you want to incorporate – then let us know.
