As we look ahead to the 2026 season, here’s a quick recap of what an incredible year 2025 has been for us.
We’ve had another fantastic year building and growing our family-run business, surpassing even our own expectations. It was our busiest season yet, helped along by some truly fantastic weather. We were also incredibly proud to be recognised with the Tripadvisor Travellers’ Choice Award for 2025, a huge honour that reflects the consistently positive feedback and support from our amazing customers.
A huge thank you to all our new and returning clients for your continued support. Our all-Highfield fleet completed over 320 charters, welcoming a record-breaking 3,000+ passengers across The Solent.
From corporate charters and family days out to stag and hen parties, festivals, commercial and survey work, dive operations, race support, and safety cover — as well as helping families say their goodbyes through ash scatterings at sea — it’s been a year filled with variety and meaningful moments. We’ve also been proud to support media projects for the BBC, ITV, Channel 4, Sky, cruise ship companies and port authorities.
Thank you to every passenger and client who chose to book with us last year — we truly appreciate you trusting us to get you out on the water.
We’d also like to extend our heartfelt thanks to our professional skippers, mechanics, marina staff, fellow operators, boating friends, family, and everyone working behind the scenes. Your dedication keeps our boats in top condition and our charters running smoothly — we couldn’t do it without you!
Bookings for the 2026 season have already started stronger than ever, with many dates now fully booked. We also have some exciting new offerings on the horizon, including further fleet expansion — so watch this space!
We can’t wait to welcome you all onboard for the 2026 season ⚓️🌊
