Where
can I stay if I wish to extend my stay in the area?
This URL lists other hotels in the area, I suggest either the Concorde
Hotel and Club
http://www.eastleigh.gov.uk/tourism/hotels.htm
After
the charter, how do I get back to the station or Hotel?
Taxis will be ordered for you from the Marina back to the hotel or
train station, either is about a 15 minutes cab ride away.
For those wishing to stay and enjoy the water and weather (!) longer,
there is a public bar at the Marina for after event drinks, or for waiting
in for the cabs.

What
should I wear for the day?
You should bear in mind that even on a warm day it feels cooler on the
water, but the sun will burn you mercilessly, so sunscreen is a must. If
you have a warm splash proof jacket this is ideal, or if not, any warm
jacket or coat and a hat (woolly or baseball), particularly if like the
Skipper, you are thinning on top! Stay away from denim, which is useless
on the water. A fleece or similar is useful in case it gets chilly and a
pair of Sunglasses if it gets bright.
Non-marking
sole shoes please for the main vessel, we will ask people to remove their
shoes when walking inside the main area of the boat, but not when on the
aft deck or outside.
Most
people tend to stick to polo tops and chinos with jumpers or fleeces they
can discard if it gets hot.
What
are the Water Activities?
For those that want to, we can arrange a ride in a high speed RIB that is
the tender to the main Vessel. It is a “lets get a bit wet and do some
wave jumping”, it is not for the faint hearted; however it is very
stable and safe. This design of boat is used by the RNLI as lifeboats for
sea rescue, as they are both very stable and fast.
The
RIB has it's own VHF coastguard radio in case of difficulty, but we shall
be in site of the main vessel throughout most of the ride.
There
is an inflatable wave rider in the form of a jet ski for the young at
heart and physically strong
