Our Evening Cruise begins at Poole Quay where you will be greeted by the boat's skipper who will conduct the safety briefing before boarding. The skipper will cover all aspects of safety and show you over the RIB power boat. Once you have familiarised yourself with the layout and the controls, you will be kited out with your life jacket ready for departure.
Leaving the Marina through Europe's largest natural harbour to Poole Bay, each member of the party will be given the chance to drive the power boat at low speed. At the same time, there's the chance to enjoy the wonderful scenery around the harbour. Enjoy splendid views of Brownsea Island, Brownsea Castle, Sandbanks, Shell Bay, Studland & The Old Harry Rocks.
The RIB you will drive is a high performance Ballistic 7.2 metre power boat, equipped with a 150hp Yamaha HPDI engine that will power you to speeds in excess of 45 knots - that's around 51mph. As well as out and out pace, it's also built to be highly maneuverable, taking waves in its stride and accomplishing tight turns, including S turns, J turns & figure of 8's. The skipper will demonstrate just what the RIB is capable of and then give you the chance to take the controls yourself.
After
the high adrenaline phase of your cruise it's then time to take a more sedate passage to Bournemouth Pier to watch the firework display. You will cruise past three miles of deep sandy golden beaches on the way to see the fireworks, including Sandbanks, Shore Road, Branksome Chine, Alum Chine and Bournemouth central.
After the fireworks display it's then back to Poole Quay and the chance to see the Bournemouth and Poole coastline at night. You won't believe the amount of lights you can see as you travel back through Poole Harbour to your journey's end.
