Party Boats Hire Guide

What could be better than taking in London’s famous sights while enjoying canapés and a glass of sparkling wine, or making the most of those long, warm summer evenings surrounded by gorgeous city lights!

Want to see the best of riverside London or organise a small yacht party for all your friends? Thames private party boat hire is what you're looking for. Get inspired and choose a fun theme for even more fun. What are you organising and when? An event on the water is great for every occasion, so go ahead and throw that summer bash basking in the sunshine or watch the fireworks at a New Year’s Eve yacht party ! Corporate boat private hire on the Thames is one of the hottest trends right now, so if you want to treat your employees to something special, it might just be it!

How to Organise a Prime P arty on a Boat in London !

Step 1 choose the perfect boat.

The most important thing when it comes to a private party on a boat is the boat itself, of course! How to choose the best one? First, decide what kind you’re looking for! London has many party boat types to offer, from luxurious party catamarans and private yachts to affordable party barges . Once you know the basics, you should decide how much money you are willing to spend. Once done, set your agreed price in our smart filters so the platform can show you boats available for hire within this price range. In the smart filters, you can also choose the number of guests you intend on inviting. You’ll find both small and large party boats in London , as well as everything in-between! After entering these, you can see all the best offers for your boat party. The only thing you have to do now is make a short list of your favourites and compare their offers!

Step 2 Book the Boat for Your Party

Once you choose the best private party boat for your needs, you are just a few clicks away from booking it! Enter the date and amount of guests and contact the venue through the platform to confirm your booking. Make sure you discuss all your questions with the venue manager before signing any contract. Consider discussing the cancellation policy, equipment usage, food and drink rules as well as whom you should contact in case of emergency and further questions.

Step 3 Select a Theme

Decorations, dress code, what kind of food and drinks you'll serve, and how you want your invitations to look are all up to you. Choosing a theme will enhance the atmosphere of your private party and create the type of vibe you're looking for. Additionally, picking a theme will give your guests a heads up about your party ahead of time. Boats for private hire in London give you the opportunity to really go all-out, with exciting options such as an underwater theme or pirate party.

Step 4 Pick Up Food and Drinks

Before you decide on a menu, make sure you know the vessel’s rules. Perhaps your chosen party boat offers on-site catering! But if the boat allows BYOB and external catering, you provide everything by yourself and throw a boat party on a budget. Before deciding on your final menu, don’t forget to ask your guests about any food allergies or special diets to avoid any upsetting situations.

Step 5 Send Invitations for Your Fantabulous Private Party

Let your guests know they are invited to a Thames boat party! Send them invitations explaining about the event and request an R.S.V.P. But who wouldn’t go for a private event on a boat?

Step 6 Let’s Celebrate!

Dress up, gather your decorations, bring your guests and hop on board. But the most important thing is to make sure you bring a smile and positive energy. Ahoy adventure!

Safety Comes First on a Boat Party

A party on the boat can be fun, but let’s not forget about safety! The best party is the kind where no one gets hurt. Here are some safety tips to follow:

Prepare the Essentials 

Before starting the party, ensure that the boat is equipped with a first aid kit, fire extinguisher and flares. Wondering what to bring to a private boat party ? If you are planning to celebrate during the day, bring sunscreen with you, but if you’re planning a whole night of partying, warm clothes might be necessary!

Stay Hydrated

You'll feel much better after and during the party if you stay hydrated. If you plan to drink alcohol on a boat, you should mix in water as well. Keep in mind that during a party cruise in London you can’t just pop out to the store, so make sure you have all the drinks you need before sailing away.

Make Sure There are Enough Life Jackets

There should be at least as many life jackets as there are people on board. Life jackets need to be coast guard approved, so be sure you are supplied with the proper equipment. Make sure there are throwable flotation devices on the boat, too, which you can throw to anyone in the water in case of any emergency. A simple lifebuoy will do the job! Although only one such device is required on the boat, it is always a good idea to have more. Forewarned is forearmed. 

Be Aware of the Weather

It is always a good idea to check the weather a day before the event and have a plan B in case the boat party is cancelled. River conditions are displayed on the main entrances to the docks, either by flag or notice board. You can check the information on the government website as well.

• No flag or board – the river is not flowing too fast and there are no warnings.
• Yellow flag or board – the river is flowing, so  you should take extra precautions, and it may be wise not to take the boat out.
• Red flag or board – the water is very fast and the river may be flooded, so boaters should stay off the river. Many insurance companies do not cover boaters whose boats are on the river while the flag/board is red.

Types of Party Boats Available for Hire in London

Wondering what kind of private vessel you can book for your next special occasion? You’ll find plenty of houseboats and barges with party facilities on the Thames , able to accommodate anywhere between 30 and 100 guests. If you need something for a bigger gathering, l arge party cruise boats and catamarans can fit even over 200 guests! For anyone looking for cheap party boats , there are some options for small canal boat hire around Hackney Wick and the picturesque Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park, as well as at the Paddington Basin.

Boat Party Etiquette: Ensuring a Pleasant Voyage for All

Hosting an event on one of London's best party boats offers an unforgettable experience . However, adhering to boat party etiquette is essential to ensure that your floating festivity is a success for you and your guests. This guide delves into the nuances of boat party manners, ensuring that every attendee contributes to a harmonious and enjoyable atmosphere .

• Respect the Captain and Crew : The crew's primary concern is the safety and well-being of all on board. Listening to the captain and crew members, following their instructions, and respecting their decisions are paramount. They know the Thames' and are skilled in navigating its waters, so their guidance is invaluable, especially regarding safety protocols.
• Dress Code Considerations : While private boat parties can range from casual to formal, it's important to communicate the expected dress code clearly. Encourage attire that is not only appropriate for the theme but also practical for a maritime setting. High heels and loose accessories might not be the best choices on a moving vessel. Instead, suggest footwear and clothing that enhance stability and comfort.
• Mind Your Maritime Manners : Space on a boat is more confined than at a traditional venue, making it crucial for guests to be considerate of shared areas. Encouraging guests to be mindful of their space and belongings helps maintain a tidy and comfortable environment for everyone. Remind everyone to keep walkways clear and be cautious when moving around, especially if the waters are choppy.
• Alcohol Consumption with Care : While enjoying drinks is a part of many celebrations, moderation is key on a boat party. The combination of alcohol and the boat's motion can affect balance and well-being. Encourage guests to drink responsibly and ensure there's plenty of water and non-alcoholic beverages available to stay hydrated.
• Sound Levels and Music : The unique setting of a boat party means sound travels differently. Be mindful of the volume of music and conversations , especially when cruising past residential areas late at night. A great private party respects both its attendees and the surrounding community.
• Safety First : Familiarise yourself and your guests with the safety features of the boat, including the location of life jackets and emergency exits. A brief safety rundown at the start of the party can make all the difference in ensuring everyone feels secure and can enjoy the festivities with peace of mind.
• Environmental Awareness : The Thames is a historic and ecological treasure. Encourage guests to avoid throwing anything overboard and to use recycling bins if available. Respecting the river's environment ensures that it remains a beautiful backdrop for celebrations for years to come.
• Departure and Disembarkation : As the party winds down, remind guests of the disembarkation process to ensure a smooth and orderly exit from the boat. Planning for transportation options post-party, especially if alcohol has been consumed, is a thoughtful way to ensure everyone gets home safe and sound!
• Gratitude Goes a Long Way : After the private event, consider sending a note of thanks to the boat's crew for their hard work and dedication. Acknowledging their efforts in making your party successful is not only a kind gesture but also encourages a positive relationship for any future events you might host. We heard boat parties are quite addictive!

Navigating London's Waterways

Embarking on a private boat party along the Thames offers a special perspective of London, blending historical grandeur with the pulse of modern city life. A captain's expertise both ensures a safe journey as well as enriches the experience , making your event unforgettable. This guide provides valuable insights from a captain's perspective, focusing on maximising the enjoyment and safety of your Thames boat party.

Understanding the Thames

• The Thames is a tidal river, which means its level and flow change significantly. A knowledgeable captain can explain these phenomena to guests, adding an educational twist to the party.
• Opt for a route that sails past iconic landmarks such as the Houses of Parliament, the Tower Bridge, and the London Eye. A captain with deep knowledge of London's history can share fascinating stories and facts about these sites.

Choosing the Right Vessel

• The choice of boat plays a crucial role in the success of your party. From sleek private yachts like Bourne Yacht to classic riverboats like the Boat at The Copper Quay , each offers a different experience. 
• Ensure the boat is equipped with the amenities you need, such as audio-visual equipment for entertainment, catering facilities, and comfortable seating areas. The captain can provide insights into how to best utilise the space and facilities onboard.

Safety on the Thames

• Safety is paramount. A responsible captain will conduct a safety briefing for all guests, outlining the location of life jackets, emergency exits, and safety procedures.
• The captain is skilled in navigating the Thames, avoiding potential hazards such as other vessels, bridges, and the river's varying depths. Trusting their expertise ensures a smooth and safe journey.

Enhancing the Party Experience

• Timing can significantly affect the ambience of your party. A sunset cruise offers stunning views and a magical atmosphere for your event, while a nighttime voyage showcases London's illuminated skyline.
• Encourage the captain to interact with your guests, offering insights into the river's history, pointing out lesser-known landmarks, and sharing intriguing tales of London's riverside.

Weather Considerations

• London's weather can be unpredictable. The captain can provide advice on the best times of year for a boat party and how to plan for inclement weather, ensuring comfort and enjoyment regardless of the conditions.
• Depending on weather and river traffic, the captain might adjust the route to ensure the most pleasant journey. Flexibility is key to a successful boat party on the Thames.

Making the Most of Your Boat Party

• Discuss any specific requirements or custom elements you wish to include in your party with the captain, or with the venue manager beforehand. Whether it's pausing at a particular spot for photos or arranging a surprise fireworks display (where permitted.)
• The captain's role extends beyond navigation; they are instrumental in setting the tone for a memorable event. Their expertise, combined with their stories and knowledge of the Thames, can add an extra layer of enjoyment to your boat party.

FAQs about Party Boats in London

How much does it cost to hire a boat for a party in london.

Parties on the water in London can cost you anywhere from £185 up to £8,000 per session . The costs depend largely on the size and duration of your party and can vary after you discuss the details with the venue manager. Some of London’s venues use minimum spend , which means you’ll hire the party boat for free and agree to spend a set amount of money on food and drinks during your event. The requirements usually range between £350 and £6,000 per event , but they can reach up to £30,000 on the most luxurious boats and yachts for 500+ guests. (All data from Tagvenue.)

Can I hire a part of a London party boat?

You can certainly hire a smaller area on a boat, such as a restaurant or an upper deck . When hiring the boat , discuss your space needs with the venue manager as you could discover that there are smaller and more affordable options beyond hiring the whole venue. 

How long does a boat party usually last?

Basic boat hire will last around 3-5 hours , however, longer options are available and should be discussed with the venue manager during the booking process. Most boats operate somewhere between 10.00-00.00  every day so you can expect to schedule your party during these hours.

Is food included in a party hire on a boat?

Most boat venues offer in-house catering with accommodation for different specialty requirements. However, unless you have booked a per person package which includes food and drinks, you will need to pay separately for catering and beverages. And if you’re picking a BYO option , keep an eye out for extra fees! 

Am I allowed to bring my own alcohol on the boat?

You should ask the owner whether you can BYOB. Some venues allow it, and for others you will have to purchase it on the boat or will not be allowed to drink at all. Keep in mind that some London boats might charge corkage fees in the case of providing your own alcohol while others, like Barge Fiodra , don’t.

Permanently moored on the Embankment, it's an iconic spot in which to host a private function for groups anywhere between 40 and 220 in size. Promising great hospitality and a cracking range of cocktails alongside that beauty of a vantage point, head for drinks on the deck during the summer or take things inside for more boozing and merriment during the cooler months.

Thames Luxury Charters

With three vessels of different sizes, ranging from up to 70 guests to 620 on the largest, Thames Luxury Charters is making sure your private boat party is completely bespoke.

Yacht Charter River Thames

Build your own unique trip!

London itself has been a port of sorts since the dawn of civilsation. The Romans overwhelmed the Britons who often fought back with Queen Boudicca famously burning the city to the ground. Castles and Palaces line the river from the Tower of London to the seat of power Westminster Palace, Greenwich Palace (on the East/West Greenwich Meridian) and then further upriver, Hampton Court Palace and Royal Family's residence at Windsor Castle.

Beyond Britain's faded glory of old, the Thames is still one of the UK's most important waterways. Dozens of river and canals feed into it from the River Lea in the east to the Grand Union canal in the City that combined give it waterborne links to much of the South East and even the West Midlands. It is even possible to take a narrowboat all the way from the city to the Bristol Channel and the mighty River Severn in the west of England via the Kennet and Avon Canal that joins at Reading.

From partying into the night to hair raising speedboat rides, to a night or two on a Thames barge or just pottering through the quiet countryside in rural Oxfordshire, a River Thames yacht charter could mean any number of things. Let's explore these below.

Explore the River Thames By Renting A Boat

There are three effective zones on the Thames where you can explore the breadth and depth of Britain's most important river.

From the Thames Barrier to Teddington Lock, Central London is a boat charter zone where it is best to leave the sailing itself to a pro. That means you can enjoy a sightseeing cruise with the views and sounds of one of the world's greatest capitals that has been around since the dawn of civilisation without having to worry which arch you should be passing under and dealing with the rebounding boats' and ships' washes from the embankment in what can be tricky tidal currents!

Perhaps on a party boat with champagne flowing or on a luxury yacht charter in Central London you can concentrate on the fun to be had and enjoy the sights and sounds of one of the world's greatest capitals, embarking and disembarking on one of the Port of London's main pier embarkation and disembarkation points.

Teddington Lock to Reading can still be done in luxury and comfort, perhaps having your wedding reception afloat as you pass Windsor Castle and Hampton Court Palace, taking in relics of Britain's great past.

This section, past Marlow, Henley and on up to Oxford and the West of England may be considered the Upper Thames. From Teddington west the waterway depth is protected by the lock and this means that the amateur boatman or sailor can more competently take a bareboat cruiser charter upriver.

On lower stretches of the Upper Thames you can sail on a luxury yacht charter Thames barge for many miles of the Thames river. These are old wide beam cargo ships that take passengers and are comfortably fitted out throughout and offer very good hospitality. There are many opprtunities to hire a crewed boat or luxury yacht as a venue for a Christmas party or wedding reception - or just a post-lockdown disco cruise with your friends! Like the Central Londonparty boat charters we discussed above you can have 60 guests with you for an event that will remain in memory for a long time to come.

The third zone is the upper reaches of the Thames as well as the Kennet and Avon Canal where you can potter along the waterways on a narrowboat or luxury boat for a day or a week's boating holiday in a far less frenetic environment.

How To Get To the River Thames

One of the longest rivers in the UK, the Thames runs past some of the most important road, rail and air links in the country.

Tube: For a Central London party boat or dining cruise you can access a pier for the start of the cruise in locations including the Embankment and Pool of London. These are a short walk from the Tube.

The West London boroughs of Richmond and Teddington are both on the District Line of the Tube, with an Overground train station also at Richmond.

Rail: London's major railway stations connect to destinations all over the UK and via St Pancras to Europe via the Eurotunnel.

Road: Much of the Upper Thames lies on the M4 corridor with good road links to Reading, Windsor, Oxford, Marlowand Henley.

Marinas on the Thames River

As Britain's second longest river, the Thames has a large number of marinas, piers and docks that cater to everything from narrowboat, to motor yacht and even luxury yacht and party boat for everything from a private charter boatingholiday to a night of hedonism and fun.

Here are some highlights.

West London's Shepperton Marina has 400 berths catering to all sizes of yacht in four basins and provides easy access to the non-tidal river above Teddington Lock. From here you can start your boating holiday leaving London afloat instead of by other more traditional modes of transport.

A couple of miles from the M3/M25 interchange and close to Staines-on-Thames Penton Hook Marina is Britain's largest inland marina with 525 berths. For those looking for an inland waterway boating holiday that begins close to Central London, this is an ideal starting off point.

Further upriver you can start your Thames boat charter out of the 175 berth Windsor Marina that has all the facilities you need for to begin a perfect boat holiday.

Henley-on-Thames has Hambleden Marina and Henley Marina while Reading's Thames and Kennet Marina has narrowboat and even luxury boat holidays on which you can explore routes through Oxfordshire and even Wiltshire.

Suggested Sailing Routes on the River Thames

The Thames river was for many years both the gateway to the British Empire and an inland waterway link to cities as far afield as Bristol and even Worcester! What do you want from a River Thames yacht charter? Here we suggest a good option for a private boat hire on the Upper Thames but there are any number of other opportunities from a speedboat ride through Central London to a Christmas party or even getting married afloat with your wedding receptionaboard too.

Windsor - Reading - 7 Days: From the historic town of Windsor you can take your private charter or family charterboat up past the tows of Maidenhead and Marlow to the twee town of Henley-on-Thames, home of the famous rowing boat regatta. Reading at the mid-point of the cruise is a buzzing commuter town with a variety of top restaurants and excellent nightlife. For the next three days you return downriver.

Best Times To Hire A Yacht on the River Thames

The boating season runs from late April to mid September on the UK inland waterways, though you will see hardier types afloat throughout the year. Unlike the Solent, it never gets frantic on the water Upper Thames or Kennet & Avon Canal though it is a popular place for boat owners to keep their craft. A canal or riverboat charter can be done at any time through the year and you can expect a place to eat at a pub and a mooring without having to book too early or plan too far ahead.

Sailing Weather on the Thames River

April and May: Westerlies prevail but you will often find warm days with brisk sailing conditions of a F4-5. Gales will come through earlier in the year. This is Britain - expect rain!

June-August: In June there will be southerly and westerly gales at times but these tend to die out in July and August with the Azores High moving north and providing settled conditions and light easterlies. Expect temperatures in the high 20s C range with the odd few days at 30C plus. As ever, keep your oilies to hand as even in the height of summer things can change.

September-October: Grey skies and gales start to return. While often in the high teens Celsius in September with some great sailing conditions, the westerly procession of lows start coming up the English Channel and things can get a little uncomfortable by early October.

The main points to consider are what is your budget, have you got the necessary sailing experience and qualifications to manage the boat if it's not going to have a skipper, whom you are taking sailing, where exactly you wish to go and what will the weather be like on the proposed dates of your trip.

There are dozens of marinas on the River Thames from Kent to Oxfordshire. Just outside of the M25 and near Staines-on-Thames is the largest inland marina in the UK, Penton Hook Marina with over 500 berths. Inside the M25 in West London is Shepperton Marina with 400 berths - both cater to everything from narrowboat to motor yacht to luxuryyacht private boat hire.

May to August is best for sailing, though it can get very busy. If you take a River Thames boat charter outside of these times it won't be as busy, though at the end of June and the first week of July the Royal Henley Regatta can be at least as busy as Cowes on the Solent at Cowes Week - another important high society event!

You will typically pay 50% up front on booking the yacht hire and the balance on arrival. You will either pay a security deposit with your credit card on departure or can get insurance covering damage in advance. In some cases (such as the recent Covid situation) charter companies may be more flexible but this depends on the individual charter companies themselves.

If you are at sea and in danger, call MAYDAY on VHF Ch16 or ring the coast guard on your phone if you have reception. If you have a mechanical fault and can make it to or are on a mooring you will be able to phone a help line number given by the boat charter company.

Unless you are experienced on the lower reaches of the River Thames around Central London it is wise to avoid sailingon the tidal reaches below Teddington Lock. This even applies to experienced sailors London is a busy port that has bylaws that are in addition to the Collision Regulations. On the Upper Thames navigation is a lot quieter and simpler - you only need basic training to sail safely.

If you want to sail on the lower Thames without a skipper then you will need relevant qualifications like RYA Day Skipper/International Certificate of Competence (ICC)/ASA 104 Bareboat certificate or the US Sailing Certificate. On the upper Thames, for small 'day boats' or if you choose to have a skippered on board your yacht charter you typically don't require licences.

We are confident that our prices are the most competitive and transparent in the market.

We won't charge any booking fees when you make a booking with us.

We have the highest number of verified and vetted boats available on the market.

Fellow sailors share their amazing experiences

It was a pleasure to have Amy and her group on board. Lovely people, very nice and friendly. Our company had lots of contact with Amy and she is very reliable and correct, absolutely recommendable for every boat owner and always welcome back to sail with us!

An absolutely perfect experience with Vlaho! He picked us up promptly at 10am, and he had great communication up until we were able to find him on the dock, such as by sharing his location to help us easily find him. Vlaho has many friends across the islands and called up his connections to book us morning breakfast, lunch, and dinner (after departing from boat) at wonderful local spots. The lunch spot was family owned and they opened up lunch service just for us - it felt so special. He had a variety of ideas of things to do and pivoted easily when we changed our minds on what we wanted to do. He is super welcoming and happy to talk with you for the whole day or just as happy to sit in the background while you relax on the boat! We even stayed an extra hour on the sea as we were all enjoying ourselves too much to leave! I cannot wait to come back again and have another outstanding time with Vlaho. We booked Vlaho originally because he had such high reviews and he did not disappoint! Highly highly recommend.

Harriet booked for her parents a boat with skipper. Harriet was easy to communicate with and her parents were absolutely lovely people. Very friendly and respectful people

Elizabeth is a seasoned captain with decades of experience in difficult situations. The yacht was redelivered in tip top condition which for such a very long charter is almost impossible! It is very rare to find people who know what their limits are and respect them and the sea. Additionally, the entire crew comprised of avid travelers with great enthusiasm and knowledge of the Greek coast. Thank you so much for choosing our company for your adventure. It was a pleasure to meet you and hope to see you in the future!

I highly recommend Julian as a customer for renting my boat. He was excellent in its usage, keeping the boat in perfect condition and delivering it flawlessly. I recommended Julian to all those who wish to rent a boat.

Fernando is a great host, very easy to talk to and just wants his clients to have a great day on the water. His recommendations were great and we discovered some lovely bays and had amazing pizza on the boat. The Idea is in great condition and I am looking to rent again soon

We had a great experients, Emanuele is verry kind and verry helpfull. He has a map of the lake and gave us wonderfull tips to go visit for the day. All in all a great experients, defenatly worth the money.

Adrian and his crew just wanted to spand a day charter arround Rovinj and a very beautiful Arhipelago that we have explored yesterday. Very pleasant people, chill out atmosfere, wanderfull weather and very nice and calm Sea. Considering stil in very changing April, my guests did show a brave step jumping in the Sea for a short swim.... good for them 😁🥶 That is the right way to open the summer 2024...👍 Carpediem my friends...

Our favourite sailing destinations

I discovered Click&Boat surfing the Internet. I am a naturally curious person, and your website caught my attention right away. I started reading about your general terms and conditions, where I quickly found a phone number. After talking to the client service, which was very pleasing, I decided to try out the platform.

At the age of 16, I was volunteering for the Red Cross of the Sea, where our goal was to assure sailing regattas. It is during that period that I learned to navigate on small boats for the first time. After 30 years, I finally got to own my first fishing boat bigger than 8 meters in length. Five years ago, a friend of mine who made his fishing boat available for charter, invited me to come aboard with him and some clients. It is then that I saw how much people appreciated the sea. So, I decided to pass my professional license to be able to take people out on the water in Mallorca.

The service that I offer is simple charters without skipper, because many people own a boat license, and our vessels are easy to handle. We are starting private excursions where we can take people on the boats to places they could not go to by themselves.

Most of the profits we make are spent on fleet upgrades. I always like to remember how thankful renters are when they are satisfied with our service. 

Maribel and I would like to thank Click & Boat for their trust and service.

Regards to the entire Click & Boat team,

WHAT CLIENTS SAY

This is truly a 5 * service. The team really looked after us both ashore on arrival and also while at sea. We were a relatively inexperienced crew but always felt the team ashore had our backs. Thoroughly recommended.

I just wanted to say Thank-you very much for the weekend charter. It was exactly what we were after (albeit cold!) plus Andy was an awesome teacher and great company. We’ll definitely be keen to book again soon!

We had a fabulous four days. Marina is ideally placed for the Solent, boat was in great condition, well equipped and a joy to sail. We were well briefed and the shore side team including the dog very friendly.

We charted one of the sailing yachts for a fantastic weekend cruise in the Solent. The boat was in superb condition and well equipped, the staff was very helpful explaining how things work on the yacht and there was also a video available with all the important information. 10/10 would recommend!

Had a fantastic week chartering Blue Otter, Alex was incredibly helpful and sent loads of information and date checking prior to booking. There was a handover video and both the handover and return were really smooth. The boat was lovely and well maintained and Lee was really helpful in recommending places to visit (and helping identify the steering issue as an autopilot takeover - doh!). Definitely will be back and would fully recommend!

Just back from a lovely week in the Solent. Great service from HPYC from first inquiry through to return handover. Very straightforward to deal with, and the yacht was in excellent condition. We've chartered from many companies in the UK and abroad and the attention to detail (and flawless inventory!) was second to none. Everything about the yacht and equipment had clearly been well looked after and was in immaculate condition. Great service, will use again.

Always very friendly service, and well-maintained yachts. Easy check-in and checkout. Will be back...  

We had a great time and were very happy with everything. Your team were genuinely friendly and were very helpful when we needed it. Is a big contrast to many charter companies I have dealt with in the past.

Watching the sun go down with a glass of bubbly on the deck of a sparkling yacht was unbelievable. What a treat, and a much needed change of scenery in these troubled times. We will be back for sure

Fab service, nothing too much trouble, including my daft questions. I'll be a repeat customer for sure!

We had a great time sailing with Lee for a few days at the beginning of September. Hamble Point Yacht Charters supplied us an impeccable 45 ft Hanse yacht, which was handled with complete mastery by Captain Lee. It was a privilege to sail with Lee, who is clearly a highly skilled professional taking great pride in his work ... but who is also a fantastic character with a great sense of humour and plenty of fun stories to keep the whole family entertained. He balances the serious side of safety and learning about sailing with a whopping dose of amusement and good cheer. We sailed the Solent in some decent seas, visited Bucklers Hard on the banks of the Beaulieu River and learned lots about British nautical history. Our boys started somewhat of a fishing trend catching bass off the back of the boat in Portsmouth and we would love to sail with Lee again in the future. The man truly knows his stuff, maintained the boat impeccably and went to every effort to ensure that we had a great time. Many thanks to “Shippers” and Hamble Point Charters. We’ll be back.

Chartered bareboats with HPYC on numerous occasions most recently in Sept 2020. Always helpful and accommodating. Highly recommend.

We had a fantastic weekend sailing on Loxley B. Boat in super condition and spotlessly clean, Alex. and the team very thorough and always on hand to answer any questions. A great experience. We will be back. Thank you!

Lots of information from office with a friendly service. We selected a one of the cheaper yachts and was please with find everything work and was cleaned and tidy. We will definitely be back

This was the first time we had tried chartering and as experienced racing sailors we didn't know what to expect. Covid has closed down all our events this year so this was a chance to get afloat at least once in 2020. What a great experience and Alex and all the Hamble staff could not have been more friendly or helpful. We had a great three days and we will be back !! We would have no hesitation is recommending Hamble Point Yacht Charters.

Good night - we'll be back tomorrow.

Rishi Sunak's internal critics have abandoned their attempt to unseat him because they have run out of time and do not believe Penny Mordaunt would do what is necessary to save the party.

The Politics At Jack And Sam's podcast discusses how the PM is unlikely to face a challenge but will be confronted by an exhausted, sceptical and in parts broken Tory party when parliament returns tomorrow.

He faces legislative challenges in the coming weeks, with revolts on the criminal justice bill and sentencing bill, that could be aggravated by the party's poor performance.

But efforts by plotters to oust Mr Sunak have been abandoned.

Train drivers begin a fresh wave of strikes tomorrow.

They are part of a long-running dispute over pay.

Members of Aslef union at 16 rail companies will walk out on different days from tomorrow to Thursday.

Additionally, all members will refuse to work any overtime until Saturday.

Here is a full list of the services affected by strikes and when…

The Foreign Office has denied the UK's ambassador to Russia was "summoned" by officials in Moscow over military support for Ukraine.

It comes after Russia warned Ukrainian strikes on its territory with UK-supplied weapons could bring retaliatory attacks against British military facilities and equipment on Ukrainian soil or elsewhere.

Russia's foreign ministry said the UK's ambassador to Moscow, Nigel Casey, had been "summoned" to make him "reflect on the inevitable catastrophic consequences of such hostile steps by London".

But the Foreign Office said he had just taken part in a diplomatic meeting with ministry officials.

"The ambassador reiterated the UK's support for Ukraine in the face of unprovoked Russian aggression, and restated the UK's position on providing support to Ukraine," said a statement.

John Swinney is preparing to take over the SNP, and the role of Scotland's first minister, after days of Holyrood drama.

There is no doubt this is a proud moment for Mr Swinney, his wife and son. He was Nicola Sturgeon's deputy for the best part of a decade - and can now stand out from her shadow and set his own agenda.

His previous days as SNP leader in the early 2000s were described as a disaster - but everything is different now.

There are questions about how much of a fresh perspective he will be able to inject into the party he has been part of for 40 years.

He has the hangover of being education secretary during the COVID crisis when children's learning was harmed, overseeing Scotland's finances for a long time, and wiping his COVID WhatsApps.

And now, there are two major issues sitting in his in-tray that will shape the future of this party.

Read Connor's full analysis below:

Labour shadow minister Lisa Nandy has said the party "absolutely" supports people's right to peaceful protest after Oxford and Cambridge university students set up pro-Palestinian encampments on campus.

The scenes have echoed those seen at major US universities recently, though some of those have led to tense and sometimes violent stand-offs with police and security personnel.

Ms Nandy backed the policing of the UK protests so far, saying they have "broadly speaking, got the balance right".

"We absolutely support the right of people to peaceful protest and support the police in being able to make operational decisions about when peaceful protest spills into intimidation," she said.

Here in the Politics Hub, we've been reporting on Israel's seemingly imminent military incursion into the Gazan city of Rafah today, as both Rishi Sunak and Keir Starmer have advised against it.

They have expressed concern about the number of citizens - many of whom have already evacuated their homes in other parts of Gaza - sheltering there.

Our Middle East blog team are now reporting a potentially major development, with Hamas saying it has accepted a ceasefire deal proposed by Egypt and Qatar.

However, Israel has indicated it doesn't agree with the terms.

Follow live updates in our Middle East blog:

Aside from the local elections, the prime minister has today been questioned about Israel's seemingly imminent ground offensive in Rafah.

The country's military is telling Palestinians sheltering in Gaza's southernmost city to evacuate, even though many have already had to flee their homes.

Labour's Keir Starmer and David Lammy, the shadow foreign secretary, have today urged Israel not to carry out the incursion (see 17.00 post).

Rishi Sunak said he is "deeply concerned" about the prospect of the offensive because of the number of civilians sheltering in Rafah.

He said he had raised his concerns "repeatedly" with Israel's prime minister but also said Hamas had a role to play in ending the conflict.

Mr Sunak said: "The priority right now should be on all parties, but particularly Hamas, to agree to a deal, to release hostages and allow more aid to go in as part of a temporary pause which will allow us to build a sustainable ceasefire."

Is Reform UK on the rise? Blackpool’s soup kitchen candidate will find out

Chris Webb is expected to win Blackpool South for Labour but eyes are on the fortunes of Mark Butcher, who works with the poor and insists he is ‘not a politician’

M ark Butcher, Reform UK’s candidate in Blackpool South’s byelection, watched as a carriage driver on the town’s promenade plunged a fist into the manure-collecting bag behind his horse. Petty bureaucracy, both men furiously agreed, was stifling the resort’s appeal.

“People came here because it was a magical place, but where have the donkey rides gone? Where are the ice-cream vendors?” asked Butcher, evoking a nostalgia for the town’s glory days and reciting a mantra that Blackpool had long been ill-served by a Labour-controlled council and – when the “red wall” crumbled in 2019 – a Conservative MP.

With recent polls putting Reform in third place nationally, next Thursday’s byelection could be a crucial bellwether moment for gauging the electoral potency of the Brexit party’s successor.

On the face of it, Labour’s Chris Webb is the firm favourite to win the contest after a lobbying scandal led to the resignation of Scott Benton, the former Tory MP elected five years ago with a majority of 3,690.

He faces a Tory, David Jones, reduced to warning in election material that a vote for Reform “risks letting Labour in” – even if the resources being deployed by the would-be populist party are nothing like the manpower once commanded by its predecessors under Nigel Farage’s leadership.

Yet in Butcher, a businessman with name recognition through work with the poor, the party also believes it has a strong candidate – albeit under some clouds. The Charity Commission said this week it was probing allegations – denied by him – that the soup kitchen he founded was used to promote his campaign.

Walking through the town centre this week with the Guardian, he was frequently stopped by homeless people singing his praises. Other interactions with locals suggested Blackpool-specific concerns – namely a need to restore pride in the town and questions about redevelopment – were foremost in voters’ minds.

In the run-up to polling, Westminster was still a world away in a town where Keir Starmer and Liz Truss stood level at seven each in terms of biography copies sold by the local Waterstones.

Nevertheless, the stakes are high in a place regarded as a test case for the levelling up promises of both the Tories and Labour. Private and public “regeneration” money totalling £2bn has poured in, with a new tram line among the most visible evidence.

But tentative gentrification in parts of the centre sits uneasily with streets not far away where boarded-up properties are common and ageing communities live with the highest rate of deaths linked to alcohol, drug use and suicide in England.

At a hustings at a Blackpool FC supporters’ club, the same concerns came up again.

“Blackpool should be the premier seaside resort in the north of England and yet you cannot bring your children into the water here because of the sewage spills. That’s a disgrace,” said Ian Nickson, a local builder who joined others questioning candidates at the Armfield Club in the Bloomfield Road area.

From the stage, Butcher insisted he was “not a politician” as he echoed familiar Reform UK talking points on immigration – “we are a Christian country with Christian values and a line has to be drawn” – and claimed Blackpool had become a “dumping ground” for paedophiles and criminals, alleging that paedophile rings now targeted its amusement arcades.

Such claims went largely unchallenged in the absence of the Labour and Conservative candidates, who were mocked by Butcher and the other candidates ranging from the Liberal Democrat to a handful of independents, including a woman who proudly recalled she had been “one of the first lady professional wrestlers on Blackpool beach”.

Webb could not be there because of a prior commitment, according to Labour, which rejected Reform attacks that the former staffer for a number of MPs and MEPs was “a career politician”.

A Labour spokesperson said: “Chris Webb is Blackpool born and bred. He was born here, he grew up here and still lives here with his wife and son,” adding that Webb had attended three out of the four hustings compared with Butcher’s two.

Either way, Labour was relaxed enough to miss a hustings at a football supporters’ club even at a time when the party is chasing the return of red wall voters. Whether this demographic will switch in any greater number to Reform will be one of the most interesting questions next Thursday. Labour is understood to expect the Conservatives to still finish second, although a close third place by Reform could pile further pressure on Rishi Sunak.

At the club, Nickson thought carefully when asked by the Guardian if he was tempted to vote for Reform after pressing the candidates on the need to clean up Blackpool’s water. His answer reflected the Marmite-like appeal and limitations of Reform.

Butcher, he suggested, was not a “typical” Reform candidate, with merits including a local record that other voters might be attracted to. But he added: “The image of the party nationally is not something I support, the idea of Nigel Farage being involved. When it comes down to it, if you are aligning yourself with that then they are not for me.”
