Action-packed skies!

A scenic cruise along the South Devon Coast was the perfect start to the day as a fully-booked Pride of Exmouth set sail for the Teignmouth Air Show.

Highlights of the day included the Aerobatic Marvels of the Red Arrows and the roar of the powerful and agile Eurofighter Typhoon (a personal favourite of mine).

The weather held off until a sudden downpour almost perfectly, at the end of the last display of the day as we set sail back to Exmouth with a bit of sightseeing along the way. Fortunately, the lower deck of our boat is covered and we do of course limit our on board capacity for events such as this, to ensure that everyone is warm and comfortable whatever the weather!

Did you go? We would love to see your photos! Please feel free to send your top pics in for us to share.

Woof! See our dog friendly cruises!

We love having dogs join us on our sailings though, self-admittedly, we have been guilty of not making it clear enough which trips are suitable… today that changes as we launch an updated “Dog Friendly” webpage which contains a specially crafted timetable of all our dog friendly trips!

Do not be afraid to ask for some water for your pooch, our crew are only to happy to ensure all our passengers (no matter how many legs they have) are happy and enjoying themselves!

2025 Calendars

We love sailing around the waters of the Devon Coast and the River Exe, we have been doing so since 1968! Would you believe though, in over 50 years, we have never produced a calendar where we can show of the views and memories experienced by all of you! We thought that better change, so we have made a calendar for 2025 that will be available on the boats or our booking office! Fill to the brim with photos from the area and a handy A4 size, it will be perfect to mark those important dates like birthdays and cruise times!

Photo Corner

We love seeing your photos of our boats, either sailing past or seeing the amazing views from onboard. Please send us photographs in reply to this email so we can share your experiences with others right here in photo corner.
