We spotted the PS Waverley out on the water today. She is the last seagoing paddle steamer in the world.

She was first launched in 1946 and has had a couple of refits over the years. Thankfully in 2020 she had new boilers fitted and returned to service once more.

She is currently in the Solent area until the 25th September.

A truly magnificent vessel and piece of history.

Our brand New Highfield Patrol 760 “Aquaholic” has hit her first milestone of 100hrs on the water.

Skippers and client feedback have been so positive since her arrival 6 weeks ago. We too have been so impressed with her that we have just taken delivery of a 2nd boat to join our fleet.

After over 5 years of loyal service we say goodbye to our 2nd Ribeye 785 “Aquadiciton”

When we first bought her she had an extensive refit, her appearance further changed over the years as we made more upgrades. She served us well and welcomed thousands of guests onboard for many memorable days out on the water.

We are pleased to welcome our brand new Highfield Patrol 760 which is coded for 12 people (meaning we can carry 11 passengers plus a skipper) - our two new ribs are the very first of the ALL NEW Patrol model range from Highfield in the UK. They have been highly spec’d featuring a 300hp Mercury Outboard, 12” Simrad Plotter, Fusion sound system and Scot Suspension Seats.

Please welcome our BRAND NEW Highfield Patrol 760 “Aquadiction” giving us an all Highfield Rib fleet alongside her sister boat “Aquaholic” and our Highfield Patrol 860 “Aquatherapy”

The Solent’s newest fleet of ribs are now available for both skippered and bareboat charters.

A great day on the water yesterday with all our boats out in some tricky conditions in the afternoon.

Our fleet of Highfields had no issues in the 35 knot gusts giving a safe and comfortable ride across The Solent.

After over 7 years of loyal service we say goodbye to our very first Ribeye 785 “Aquaholic”

When we first bought her she had an extensive refit, her appearance further changed over the years as we made more upgrades. Aquaholic served us well and welcomed thousands of guests onboard for many memorable days out on the water.

The boats outline formed our logo which will remain as a nod to where we started all those years ago.

We have gone from strength to strength expanding our fleet as the years have gone on with the addition of our 2nd Ribeye 785 followed by of our Axopar 28 and most recently our Highfield Patrol 860.

We felt now was the right time to usher in the next chapter.

We are pleased to welcome our brand new Highfield Patrol 760 which is coded for 12 people (meaning we can carry 11 passengers plus a skipper) - it is the very first of the ALL NEW Patrol model range from Highfield in the UK. She has been highly spec’d featuring a 300hp Mercury Outboard, 12” Simrad Plotter, Fusion sound system and Scot Suspension Seats.

Please welcome our BRAND NEW “Aquaholic” Highfield Patrol 760.

She is now available for both skippered and bareboat charters.

Huge thank you to all the team at Highfield and BLS Marine Group for all their amazing work getting the boat ready.

Dear

What an amazing day on our coastal walk and beach clean .

This was all for charity, The Andrew Simpson Foundation - the target was to raise £5,000 and all the walkers collectively raised £8,600.

Thank you to everyone that donated on our page, you helped us raise £900 for this great cause. As a result some 300 disadvantaged children will be able to get out on the water sailing.

Was great to meet so many new faces involved in the marine industry.

Dear

Akis and Josh from Rib Shack Marine & Southampton and Portsmouth Rib Charter together with the British Marine Professional Services Association are taking part in a sponsored conservational coastal walk along the fantastic Lymington coast on the 4th July.

We will be walking a 16km route along the coast whilst collecting rubbish and other marine pollutants. We will be raising funds for a charity that does amazing work in our industry, the Andrew Simpson Foundation, all whilst helping to protect our treasured coastline.
The Andrew Simpson Foundation’s drive is their belief that all young people can excel and succeed in life and work. They believe that the challenges of sailing and water-sports do this by promoting health and wellbeing whilst building essential life skills. These skills then enable young people to progress through education and into work.
It is important for us to keep our industry alive and introduce new young people to the world of sailing and water-sports, meanwhile doing what we can for our coastline.

We understand that budgets are tight but we really would welcome any spare pennies that you would be willing to donate to such a great cause.

Over the last two days we have been working as a support boat for a 38 strong sailing regatta.

We had bright blue skies but could have done with a bit more wind for the races.

What an evening on the Solent! We were tasked at the last minute to head out with Richard GaisfordGaisford and a media team to meet up with the crew of Sea Change. They’re taking part in the GB Row Challenge - where they are circumnavigating the British coastline, collecting scientific data on microplastics and other pollution for University of Portsmouth

With the recent bad weather it made for a pleasant change to catch them with calm seas and the sun shining.

Good luck to everyone taking part on the rest of the journey.

Our story

RIB Charters for You in The Solent and around The Isle of Wight

Southampton RIB Charter and Portsmouth RIB Charter was created from a passion and love for the water, and the journeys it can take you on. It has been a long time in the making, starting off as a dream the owner had as a child, and who has now been able to bring to life in his older(ish) years.

Let’s first talk about our leading skipper and owner of Southampton RIB Charter. Although born in the UK he maintains he is Greek! With Greek parents and strong family roots from Athens and the Aegean Islands his heart has always belonged to the sea. His ancestors and parents are heavily involved with shipping, being on board ships and surrounded by water was his first love. Every summer over the years have and continue to be spent in the water, on the water or by the water. This led to activities such as Scuba diving, snorkelling and countless boat trips. At every opportunity there will be a boat involved in one way or another.

All our skippers hold a Commercially Endorsed Advanced Powerboat Licence with all the relevant safety certificates including Sea Survival, First Aid and VHF use, which have been all certified by the Royal Yachting Association (RYA). Rest assured you are in safe hands, but if you have any queries then we will be happy to discuss these with you.
