rib powerboats are one of the fastest ways to travel across water. they can hit 60mph within a matter of seconds thanks to their lightweight construction and the v-shaped hull making them incredibly stable, even at their top speed. with this experience you will enjoy a white knuckle ride around the solent and then a more relaxing, slower-paced tour of the historic portsmouth harbour. on your arrival you will be welcomed by the staff who will ask you to sign in and brief you on the experience. you’ll be introduced to your skipper and issued with life jackets and waterproofs as required. the skipper will take the group down to the pontoons where a pre-boarding safety brief will be given. after familiarisation with the vessel, it will be ‘ropes off’ and you’ll depart gunwharf quay for a high speed tour of the western solent where you’ll weave amongst the napoleonic stone forts that span the sea. then you’ll head back to the fortified harbour mouth at old portsmouth and enjoy a relaxing, informative tour of the historic portsmouth harbour. take in the naval warships, ancient and new, as well as the major points of interest amongst the home of the royal navy. the experience will finish at gunwharf quays where you’ll disembark….
