A bunch of business associates of mine are thinking about having a day's skippered charter on a boat big enough for 8-10 people (40 foot?). Any recommendations of companies, apart from the ubiquitous Sunsail?
They have a couple of Dehler 39s which seem better than the run-of-the-mill AWB. (I did part of a dazed kipper refresher on one of Ondeck's Dehlers recently) and these are also available for charter. I'm sure they could throw in a skipper for a fee.
OnDeck also have several Farrs (45 & 60 I think) if want to really go for it.
Ken, the other option is Haslar Sea School. Wandered in one morning with RYA log book & cash for mid week bare boat day charter and offered very good price. Bavaria spotless, until I left the little window open above the chart table and washed it down with the hose, oops sorry.
