Corporate Entertainment, Team Building and Hospitality Sailing in Poole Harbour, along the spectacular Jurassic Coast, and in the Solent.
We are delighted to introduce the new Elan 410's to our fleet for 2008. These superb new yachts are not only exciting and rewarding to sail, but offer exceptional levels of comfort. We will have up to five of these lovely new yachts available for skippered Race Charter, Corporate Hospitality, Corporate Entertainment and Team Building Exercises, both in Poole, Dorset, and in the Solent.
Spinnaker Yachts is a yacht charter business based in Poole, Dorset. Owned and run by two highly experienced Master Mariners, who are also Harbour Pilots; Jim Macgregor and Neil Vardy have their own fleet of matched Elan sailing yachts and specialise in Race Charter, Corporate Hospitality and Team Building Exercises around Sandbanks in Poole Harbour, Dorset.
Poole Harbour is the perfect sailing location for Corporate Hospitality Events because of its sheltered waters and beautiful scenery. Poole Harbour is the largest natural harbour in Europe, and is renowned as the playground of the rich and famous. The golden beaches of Sandbanks and Studland Bay are on our doorstep and the spectacular Jurassic Coast is just around the corner. Various types of Sailing Day are available; any of which can be
tailored to suit your requirements. Outlined below is a selection for you to
cruise through. Each package includes the experience of sailing under
guidance and an excellent buffet lunch served on board. If you require
accommodation we can make arrangements at one of the many first class establishments nearby.
Spinnaker Yachts are also delighted to be working with Premier Yacht Sales to help promote the performance range of Elan Yachts such as the Elan 340, Elan 380, Elan 410 and Elan 450.
 
The Corporate
Entertainer
Our most popular sailing event is a Corporate Entertainment day of fun match racing, combined
with an excellent buffet lunch on our Elan 410 or Elan 333 cruiser/racers. These yachts are perfect for
hospitality events, or just for an exciting day sailing with your staff, clients
or guests. They all have a large comfortable cockpit with wheel steering, but are also fully equipped for racing, including spinnakers. Our Skippers are friendly and experienced and will encourage you to sail the boats yourselves as much as possible.
 The Team Builder
We recommend that at least two identical yachts are used for this Team Building Sailing event, with
up to eight people on each yacht. The event will include sailing the yachts
in race conditions, as well as other tasks designed to encourage the teams to
develop and bond. Sailing provides the ideal environment for Team Building where skill is more important than
strength and all the team members can contribute on equal terms.
The Performance Developer
Sailup™ Talent Management and Performance Development Programs leverage the exhilaration of competitive sailing to maximise the impact of business training in order to sharpen the skills, behaviours and motivation of your teams. Reasonable competitive sailing offers a complex and moving environment that mirrors the constraints and challenges facing your organisation while still ensuring an atmosphere of safety, motivation, friendliness and fun.

The Race Charter
This is your chance to experience the excitement of Grand Prix yacht racing.
You can charter one of our superb Elan yachts for racing in one of the many top UK events such as Cowes Week, The Silicon Cup or The Little Britain Challenge. We will
enter one of our impressive new Elan 410's and take up to six guests for the day racing.
These modern Elan yachts are fully equipped for competitive racing, with an already
proven track record which includes wins at all of the above events, and should not
be confused with ordinary Charter Yachts. Six reasons why you should choose Spinnaker Yachts
1. Sandbanks, Poole Harbour and the surrounding area provide the perfect location for sailing Corporate Hospitality events. Poole has the largest natural harbour in Europe and is renowned as the playground of the rich and famous. You will be sailing along the spectacular Jurassic Coast, now a World Heritage site. Anchor for lunch in beautiful Studland Bay and enjoy a swim. If necessary, we can run a full event in the sheltered waters of the harbour itself.

3. There are a good range of excellent hotels close to our operating base. We can arrange your accommodation if required.
4. We use superior quality Elan yachts for our events. They are fast and fun to sail but ideal for entertaining with wide decks, a large comfortable cockpit and wheel steering.
