our yacht
king’s ransom
We called her King’s Ransom because that’s what it cost to buy and that’s what it costs to run! King’s Ransom is a 46’ Jeanneau Prestige. Overall, she is 48’ and is powered by 2 Volvo 480hp engines giving 960hp in total, consuming 196 litres of fuel per hour. We carry 1.5 tonnes of fuel which give us a range of 280 miles on one full tank of fuel.

“I took my wife and children out on a summer’s day for a nice day break last year. Fantastic host, nice, relaxed day. Everything was handled very professionally, from booking through to service provided. Would definitely recommend and look forward to doing it again.”
“We had an amazing day, everything was perfect! Cannot wait to one day repeat the experience.”
“Fantastic family day out in the Solent for a 40th birthday celebration. Excellent hosts, lovely boat. Highly recommend!”
“We had the best day on the yacht sailing over to the Isle of Wight and back again. I would highly recommend this for a special day out. Steve and Hillary were very good hosts and kept us informed and comfortable all day. We had perfect weather and stopped off at The Hut on the island for brunch. We can’t wait to do it again.”
“Thank you for the wonderful trip to the Hut. What a trip! Everyone really enjoyed it. You and Dan were amazing! We hope to book you again.
Best wishes Sven”
Wow, what a fabulous day we had with you yesterday. Everything was excellently planned, you had matters well in hand to help Christine get on and off, you could not have been more helpful or charming. This had been a worry for me as I obviously wanted her to get full enjoyment of the day. The whole process from my initial enquiry right the way through to the actual day was a very pleasant process. It was a delight to meet you and Dan and highly amusing when Dan discovered that Steve Hyland once of Radio Mercury was a passenger. His expression much like the whole day will live long in my memory.
“I had the most amazing experience. Everything was perfect, there were five of us out for a days fun on the Solent and the skipper and crew were wonderful in every way.”
“Had the most amazing time celebrating our friends Birthday .Was slightly nervous at the start however Steve and Hillary were fabulous and helped me through the nerves . They both really made sure we all had the best day dropping us to The Hut and location for people to go swimming.”
