SAIL WITH A LEGEND, TRANSFER YOUR GUESTS TO THE YACHTS IN STYLE OR SELECT GOURMET DINING OPTIONS TO MAKE YOUR EVENT EVEN MORE MEMORABLE
Gourmet Catering
There is nothing like a day on the water to work up a healthy appetite. At Clipper Events we believe that good quality, fresh food can only enhance your experience. All our food is sourced through a local delicatessen using fresh, seasonal produce from local growers.
Our breakfast, racing lunch and afternoon tea are included in the package. If you would like food to play a larger part in your sailing experience please contact us for our gourmet options.
Venues
Gunwharf Quays, Portsmouth has a large selection of bars and resturants making it the ideal location for meeting and greeting, presentations and evening prize-giving receptions. On sunny days the outside areas are ideal for a few cold beers – the perfect way to round off an exhilarating day on the water.
Clipper Events also has access to some of the premier venues on the south coast and Isle of Wight. The historic battleship, HMS Warrior, is moored in Portsmouth Harbour, just five minutes’ walk from the marina and is an excellent location for evening drinks receptions and formal dining.
The Spinnaker Tower boasts exceptional panoramic vistas of Portsmouth Harbour, the Solent and the Isle of Wight. It is guaranteed to impress your guests and a perfect venue for drinks receptions and prize giving ceremonies.
Whatever the style of your event, we have a venue to suit your requirements.
Trophies
Give your teams something to strive for and mark a great day’s competition on the water with a trophy or memento. These tactile, non-tarnish sculptures have the appearance and texture of solid silver and are all signed to provide unique prizes to commemorate your special event.
Marine Photographer
Your team is first across the finish line, beating the opposition by just a boat length – and there’s a picture for the office wall, capturing your victory for posterity!
Giving guests a permanent reminder of their sailing experience, our professional marine photographer captures the excitement and exhilaration of a day on the water.
RIB (Rigid Inflatable Boat) Charter
Fast and powerful, RIBs provide an adrenaline-fuelled complement to a day’s sailing, whether you utilise it as a tender to your race yacht, ferrying guests to and from the shore in style, or for a thrilling, high-speed ride to excite and entertain.
Luxury Motor Yacht
The luxury motor yacht, the White Swordsman, offers an additional element of style to your day on the water. A beautifully appointed, classic motor yacht, the White Swordsman is ideal for transferring guests in comfort, or for entertaining in style those who would rather experience the thrill of racing from the comfort of a luxury launch.
Branding
Sailing big racing yachts is all about teamwork and team identity. Branding not only reinforces the team’s identity but provides the perfect billboard for your company, particularly if you are competing in the Clipper Industry Series or one of our iconic events.
We would be happy to discuss options for branding both your team – with performance technical clothing from Henri Lloyd – and the yacht with dodgers, battle flags and forestay banners.
