- Blow the cobwebs to kingdom come with a high-speed powerboat ride
- Hang on tight while your expert driver shows you what the boat can do
- Have a go at driving the boat on open water
- Safety briefing and all equipment included
Been tied to the nine-to-five and longing to break free? Blow away those cobwebs with a vengeance in a powerboat experience round the south coast - it's wet, it's windy, and it's much more fun than going to the gym to let off steam we promise you. The Honda Formula 4-Stroke (HF4S) championship is the most exciting offshore powerboat series in the world - these boats are responsive, manoeuvrable and so fast they fly over the surface. You'll start off with a safety briefing and an introduction to the boat, then it's time to get changed into your safety gear and racing team kit (a snap of which makes a great screensaver). You'll head out onto Southampton water with an expert driver, usually a current or veteran racer, who'll put the boat through her paces while you hang on tight. You'll get tuition in how to handle the boat, and then about 15 minutes of hands-on driving (at the skipper's discretion). The boat operates within Southampton Water and, weather permitting, out onto the Solent.
