Description of Mark's sailboat
Sailboat Bavaria Cruiser 32 10.3m
Based in the central location of Town Quay Southampton, Sleat Princess offers either bare boat or skippered charters around the Solent and Englands South Coast, which are considered some of the best sailing areas in the world. From Town Quay Marina, you can be sailing within minutes of leaving your berth, heading out to one of the many harbours within a days sailing, or anchoring in one of the picturesque bays, or picking up a mooring buoy on the Beaulieu or Lymington rivers. There are many places to visit. Choose from a fantastic weekend away, a relaxing week's holiday or something longer. We will be flexible and work with you to ensure a truly memorable stay. The light and airy saloon is the perfect place to relax after a hard days sailing with a fully equipped galley to look after all of your crew.A welcome grocery pack can be arranged. Sleat Princess has something to offer everyone. She is very well presented and will comfortably sleep 4 in 2 cabins with 2 additional saloon bunks. She is fully coded to RYA standards and has on board all necessary safety equipment for your crew. If sailing is new to you or you are a little rusty we would be happy to provide a skipper to show you the ropes. In addition we offer taster weekends so you can decide if sailing is for you. We will be on hand to welcome you aboard and provide a full handover and an information pack on the local area. We can also offer as much, or as little, help/assistance as you require, to make your stay onboard memorable for all the right reasons. Just let us know what you require. The minimum qualification we would require from the charterer is an RYA, or equivalent, Day Skipper. If you do not have any qualification, we can provide a qualified Skipper. Please don't hesitate to contact us.

Mark and Alison, were thoughtful and relaxed, their boat is equipped very well and in good condition.
Mark and Alison were incredibly kind, encouraging and calm on our first charter since getting our day skipper qualification. They were quick to respond to queries and the boat had everything you need for a few enjoyable days in the Solent. We had a fabulous time as a family of 4 on Sleat Princess. The marina staff were also awesome.
Friendly owners, good handover and well appointed, clean boat that handles well. Perfect for a weekend away.
amazing experience. We were welcomed warmly and given some good recommendations of where to sail and berth. Boat in great condition. Will be using again! highly recommended
Mark and Alison are very welcoming and communicative. Boat was clean, well maintained and well equipped. Had a great few days sailing. Would recommend.
A great boat for 3 or 4. In very good condition, everything worked as expected. Great handover from Mark. An experienced seafarer who is now a Southampton pilot so he was able to make recommendations that all fitted together perfectly and made for a great few days
Lovely people, great skipper and a well maintained, clean boat. We will definitely charter again.
Mark’s boat was immaculate and spacious. We had a great weekend of sailing. Craig our skipper was very accommodating, kind, knowledgable and taught us a lot on sailing with no reservations. Thank you again for a great experience for the family.
Had amazing 2 days on the Solent. Lucky with weather! Mark was welcoming and helpful and available on text to help advise us resolve any issues that occurred . Couldn’t recommend more. Thanks again.
I chartered this boat for the weekend and it was perfect for myself and another crew member. The boat was very clean- the engine bay, bilges and living spaces in particular. The boat was well stocked too with plenty of galley utensils, deck equipment and RYA training books. The boat was easy to sail also. As a result, I thought it was very good value for money
My brother and I had a fantastic weekend sailing in the Solent on Sleat Princess. Mark was very helpful and was able to meet us at the marina for a full handover. Lovely boat, we’ll definitely be booking again soon!
5 of us took Sleat Princess out for 2 days and 2 nights. She is very comfortable and well-provisioned, as well as easy to handle. Mark and Alison were excellent to hire from: very friendly and relaxed, easily accommodating our plans, while also excellent at communicating (up-front, as well as very responsive to my many ad hoc messages). Thank you both!
Mark was very relaxed and welcoming. Dealt with issues that can arise when sailing. Easy collection and smooth leaving of boat. Would definitely use again. John Michelle Remi and Stephanie

A seamless process. Mark, the owner was super friendly and helpful with all communications. Thank you very much. We will be back!
Friendly, professional, helpful people to deal with! We've not chartered before as a group & found Mark & Alison easy to deal with. Excellent hosts!
Mark was very responsive, helpful and friendly. Check in and check out was very smoothly. I recommend Sleat Princess as a bout for a weekend sailing for 4 people.
