On deck, there is a very large deep cockpit, and clean uncluttered decks that encourage guests to move around and socialise.

The boat is skippered either by Dan Bower or Emily Pearson, who are well known on the Solent circuit and who regularly work as freelance skippers for most of the big name sailing companies. Both have over 5 years experience in corporate hospitality and events and are relaxed, fun and friendly and appreciate that it is as much the skipper as the boat that makes the clients's day.
