Corporate Testimonials

“We would highly recommend EML Charters! I had booked a corporate day out on behalf of the company.

The whole experience was excellent from start to finish. Booking was very easy and the package offered great value for money. We requested a few changes and amendments to their standard package – nothing was too much trouble.

The service on the day was fantastic, and both the captain and stewardess were friendly, professional, and attentive. No complaints at all — we’d definitely book with EML Charters again and highly recommend them to others.”

“Last month we organised a corporate incentives trip to the Hut and after much research, we booked with EML Charters to make the trip extra special.

EML was extremely helpful and communicative throughout the whole process and helped me organise the trip for 37 people! The boats were absolutely fantastic, the service and the team was exceptional and we all had a truly fantastic time!

Would definitely recommend EML Charters and will be using their service in the future!”

“CBRE chartered EML’s brand new Cobra rib and Axopar for a corporate trip to The Hut from Southampton. Both weather safe and capable boats, despite rough seas on our outbound trip, we stayed dry and felt safe at all times.

Our return trip was much smoother and was great to see these boats unleashed. We were excellently looked after by EML during the booking process and skippers on the day.

If you’re looking to charter a boat along the South Coast and need a trusted pair of hands, I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend EML Charters.”
