The summer of 2008 has been one of the wettest on record, so bring on an 'Indian Summer'. There is no better time to sail in the Solent than the Autumn and Winter. Warm seas, a keen breeze and plenty of room in the marinas. All Southwest Yachting's yachts are centrally heated, keeping you warm and cosy on board during the evenings! Now in our 18th year, we are one of the longest established RYA training centres operating in the Solent. As well as our usual RYA endorsed practical courses of Start Yachting, Competent Crew, Day Skipper and Coastal Skipper, we also offer a range of RYA shore based theory courses including Day Skipper, Coastal/Yachtmaster, VHF Radio Operator, First aid and Sea Survival.

For our corporate clients our Hospitality and Team Building packages continue to be very popular. Whether rewarding employees or entertaining clients, we offer a fantastic and memorable day. Our fleet of luxury sailing yachts is one of the finest in the Solent. Combined this with our fabulous onboard catering, and professional friendly skippers, Southwest Yachting guarantees you a fantastic day on the water.
