To complement our training packages we offer fishing boats for hire. Spending a day afloat in your own fishing boat is extremely rewarding. You can choose who comes, where you fish, how long for and what type of fishing you want to do. Maybe you want to spend the day catching mackerel, or fly-fishing for bass, anchored up or drifting over the wrecks it matters not...you can choose.

Unfortunately owning your own boat is an expensive and time consuming business. Do you pay marina fees or go for a trailer boat? Either way it costs money. What about the maintenance and cleaning? Antifouling every year, engine servicing, polishing and scrubbing........the list goes on and nothing is cheap. Whilst boat ownership can be great fun, unless you have you have the time and finances to make it work it soon becomes a grind.

So why not hire? 'Bare-boat' chartering is common in the yachting world but until recently options for the angler were non-existent. Now you can enjoy using a top-quality angling boat for the day, bring her back and walk away! Even if you charter the boat every weekend, it will be cheaper than buying your own! Look out for our block booking prices which make multiple charters considerably cheaper than a one off. This really is a cost effective alternative to boat ownership.

Or current charter vessel is a Raider 18 'Cuddy'. The Raider 18 is a safe, practical craft that will perform in all conditions. The heavy reverse chine hull offers excellent sea keeping qualities with a comfortable dry ride, and will tackle the roughest waters. With an emphasis on practicality it maximises available space with a vast 52sq ft cockpit floor area. The integral wheelhouse and exceptional freeboard combine to give designed-in safety and protection from the elements and the cleverly incorporated cabin area allows for a multitude of uses. Fully coded to MCA requirements our Raider 18 has a full electronics package and carries all the safety equipment you are ever likely to need. All you need to do is bring your tackle and yourself.

We operate our charter service from Sovereign Harbour Marina in Eastbourne, East Sussex. Easily accessible, the marina offers free parking and a wealth of shops, restaurants and bars to enjoy when you've finished fishing for the day.
