Skippered RIB Charter
A skippered RIB charter is for you to enjoy adventures on Solent Water and be looked after by one of our commercially endorsed skippers.
Driving the boat, guiding your trip and ensuring you have a fun and safe time on the water.
We offer different sizes of RIBs so that we can accommodate different group sizes. Prices start from £475 for a 4-hour half-day charter and £725 for an 8-hour full-day charter. These prices include skipper and fuel.
What to expect on your private Solent Skippered RIB Charter
If you are looking to enjoy adventures on Solent Water and don’t have the experience to drive the RIB yourself (or you do and would like someone else to take the helm). Book a Skippered RIB Charter and be looked after by one of our commercially endorsed skippers.
We can carry up to 25 people in total across the RIBs in our fleet, plus skippers. If your group is larger, don’t worry; we work with fellow members of the Professional Charter Association so that you can rent a fleet large enough to carry everyone.
The charter went without a hitch – 100% satisfied. Excellent. Our skipper was a credit to Bluetooth RIB Charter. Friendly, helpful knowledgeable 10/10!
A great company and highly recommend Bluetooth to anyone looking to charter on the Solent.
Destinations you can visit
If you’d like ideas of where to visit, click here to read our Solent RIB destination guide.
On a half-day RIB charter you should be able to visit 2 locations and for a full-day charter another 1/2 with a lunch stop. This would be subject to the weather and sea state on the day or your trip as well as the passengers you have onboard.
If you want to enjoy an activities-based day of fun then we work with New Forest Adventures who offer a half day of activities such as archery, bushcraft, kayaking or battlezone in the New Forest. Perfect for team building, a special birthday, hen or stag do.
Feel free to call us and we can chat through possible itineraries for your visit.
6 of us used Bluetooth RIB Charter to take us from Hamble Point Marina to The Hut on the IOW for lunch. Although they can’t take the credit for the weather, everything else in their power was totally taken care of, guaranteeing a fantastic day out. Our Assisted Skipper was really friendly and knowledgeable and went out of his way to maximise our fun on the boat.
Apart from being the most competitively priced Charter I could find on the Solent, their comms in the run-up to the day were faultless in answering any questions, no matter how silly, in what seemed like minutes. They also liaised with the restaurant to help with the transfers to and from the boat.
What will your day look like?
Your day will start with a skipper’s briefing. Where your skipper will talk through the RIB and how to keep yourself and the rest of your crew safe and comfortable whilst onboard. Each member of your party will also be given their own lifejacket and we’ll ensure that it’s fitted correctly.
Then you’ll be underway and off to enjoy your half or full day on the water.
We have a handy guide of what to bring and what to leave at home for your trip. Click here to take a look.
Nic took my family over to the Hut on the Isle of Wight for a birthday lunch. It was a great day out, with a bit of sightseeing at the Needles and lots of fun all round. Plus a novel and fun way of getting to the Island. We all felt very safe and Nic was friendly and professional. Highly recommended!
