9am: Upon arrival at Chatham Maritime, you will be met by your hosts, Karen & William and escorted to your motor boat, a Princess V48, called Happy Bunny. We will welcome you on board with hot coffee/tea, bacon rolls and danish pastries, followed by a safety briefing. 10am: Depart Chatham Lock for a leisurely cruise up the River Medway towards the Thames Estuary, where we can open up the engines and show you the great handling and manoeuvrability of the boat. Lunch: A lunch will be prepared on board to your special requirements and a lazy afternoon spent at anchor in Sharfleet Creek. You may wish to take a swim, enjoy a glass of Pimms or chilled beer and have fun on the water. 5pm: Return to berth at Chatham Lock and guests disembark.
One thing we are unable to plan for is the weather. We therefore suggest that you come prepared for any changes. It can feel cooler on the water than on land so therefore a light fleece and waterproof jacket are recommended. During the warmer days of summer, please feel free to bring your swim wear and a towel. Sun cream is a must, although if you forget, we have supplies on board. Sunglasses are essential as the reflections from the water can be strong even when the sun is not shining. Sensible footwear must be worn, so please no stiletto shoes! Non-marking sole shoes/trainers or deck shoes are recommended. Please feel free to bring along cameras/video recorders to capture your day on film. |
