Small yacht/old yacht/day boat hire IoW

[ridgy]

Or in fact anywhere accessible in the Solent e.g. Southampton.

I think I know the answer already as substantial google has turned up nothing.
On holiday in IoW next week, would like to get on the water in some form.
A rib would do, Bembridge Marine have sensibly priced (relative to others) ribs at 230 a day but only availability is on the Friday which I will take if nothing else.

I'd be happy with anything that floats, just for day sailing with the family. J80 would be great. Anything up to 32' considered.

Royal Southern YC rent out their Js to both members and non-members alike (different rates). Call the Sailing Sec and see what you can arrange.

That seems to be very much members only unless I'm misreading something but thank you anyway.
I eventually found a fairly reasonable rib hire from hamble point and got a couple of towables for it. 760 for Mon to Fri which with the weather next week will be loads of fun with the kids.

Sounds like fun and especially during the current weather, but check their insurance policies cover towing ski equipment, donuts, wakeboards, etc, just to be on the safe side!
