Portsmouth - Boat Hire?

hellarda · 21 Jun 2019 at 10:40

Long shot I know - but going down to Portsmouth at the weekend, and wondered if anyone knew if there is somewhere that will hire you a powerboat? I have a powerboat level 2 license if that helps.

Google fu is failing this morning!

Cheers

Not that I've ever seen, @mrk also lives here maybe he'll know.

Quick Google including charter throws a few results for Portsmouth :

Looking at £300+ but powerboat level 2 is sufficient for hiring

Ah had I known about this yesterday or even this morning I could have asked at work. I know a few captains, skippers and masters and work around the dockyard/marina. Off the top of my head sadly not an idea as it's not something that ever crossed my path yet!
