Cowes Week is one of the most anticipated weeks in the sailing calendar, running 40 daily races for 750 boats. Not all of the action takes place on the race course, with thousands of spectators lining the streets and boundaries to enjoy the atmostphere.
It is also extremely difficult to get on the water, with charter boats booked months in advance, marinas full to the bursting and ferries sold out.
Pocket Charters will help you get there!
We are delighted to have our brand new Axopar 28 Cabin, Brabus Line available for the entirety of Cowes Week; with a full roster of qualified skippers avaialble for Skippered Charter – and of course our boat will be available for Bare Boat chartering for experienced customers. Early Starts, Late Arrivals – we have it covered.
We also have a large capacity, offering Bare Boat charter for 8 guests and Skippered Charter for 7 guests. We’re fully equipped – a toilet, fridge, sink, fully enclosed cabin as well as outside space means you can enjoy a full day on the water without worrying about comfort, toilet or snack breaks. We’re fully insured to operate day and night, across the entire Solent area.
So let’s work together and support you with your Cowes Week activities:

Transport to Social Events or Racing

Chase / Supplies boat (We’re fast!)
We are based in Hamble Point Marina, meaning we can be in the Solent – in the middle of the action within 10 minutes. Easy public transport access from London to Southampton Parkway means you can spend most of your day enjoying the racing rather than pondering how to get from A to B.
We offer competitive rates: £525 + VAT & Petrol for Bare Boat Charter; £725 + VAT & Petrol for Skippered Charter; with discounting for block bookings over the week.
