Try it all with Try-a-Boat!

From 40-foot sailing yachts to classic inshore cruisers, powerboats, RIBS and access-friendly craft Try-a-boat, in partnership with FlexiSail, offers visitors the chance to try, free of charge, a wide range of different boats in a single location.

Many people don’t know if they would prefer sailing to motorboating, so this is the ideal opportunity to try it all and find out.

Perfect for everyone from bold beginners to sailing veterans, potential buyers or families just looking for an adventure.

Children must be over the age of 8 to take part. Olivia is a dog friendly boat to explore in the marina. On all other boats, dogs are not permitted.

 

Please note: For the safety of our visitors, Try-a-Boat requires pre-booking. To secure your place and avoid disappointment on the day, it is advised to pre-book your Try-a-Boat and Get Afloat experience prior to attending the show. However, this can also be done upon your arrival within our booking area, which is super easy to find between the Watersports Zone and Dingy Zone. Pre-booking facilities will be available shortly.
