Over 45 minutes, you’ll skim across open water and hug the coastline, combining sightseeing with bursts of speed and precision handling. It’s a short session designed to leave a lasting impression. 🚤 Key Details Duration: 45 minutes Group Size: 4–6 people Season: March–October Minimum Age: 14 (under 18s accompanied) Max Weight: 18 stone (115kg) 📋 What to Expect After a safety briefing and lifejacket fitting, you’ll step aboard a powerful rigid inflatable boat built for speed and control. Once clear of the marina, the throttle opens and the ride quickly shifts from steady cruising to fast coastal runs, with the skipper demonstrating tight turns, figure-of-eights, and other handling manoeuvres. Landmarks come thick and fast as you pass Brighton Pier, the i360, West Pier, and along towards Hove, all viewed from the water at pace. Music plays through the onboard sound system, adding to the atmosphere while the skipper adjusts speed and movement to suit conditions. Throughout the ride, expect a mix of high-speed stretches and playful manoeuvres that show just what a performance RIB can do. Conditions on the day influence the feel of the trip, but every session focuses on delivering an exciting, controlled experience without losing sight of safety. 📍 Location Departures take place from Brighton Marina, a well-known hub on the south coast with direct access to open water. The marina’s position allows the boat to reach speed quickly while still offering close-up views of the city’s most recognisable coastal features. From the water, Brighton’s seafront looks entirely different, with uninterrupted views back towards the shoreline. Easy access and nearby facilities make the marina a practical meeting point for a short but action-packed session. 🥾 Prerequisites A reasonable level of physical fitness is important, as powerboats can transmit force through the hull when moving at speed across waves. Anyone with spinal or musculoskeletal issues, or those who are pregnant, should not take part. Layered clothing suitable for the time of year is strongly recommended, along with waterproofs and soft-soled shoes such as trainers. Expect wind, spray, and changing conditions even on warmer days. 🌟 Why Choose Us Years of delivering adventure activities on land and water have shaped a strong safety culture and attention to detail. Skippers draw on extensive p… ### Essential information _None._ ### What’s included High-speed powerboat ride Experienced skipper Lifejacket Safety briefing before departure Coastal sightseeing at speed ### What’s not included Transport to and from the meeting point Personal insurance Waterproof clothing Footwear suitable for water spray Personal medication ### Kit list _None._ ## FAQs ### How fast does the powerboat go? Speed varies depending on sea conditions, but the boat is capable of high-performance runs along the coastline. Skippers adjust pace to balance excitement with comfort and safety. Short bursts of acceleration are combined with manoeuvres such as tight turns and figure-of-eights to showcase the boat’s handling rather than focusing purely on top speed. ### Will I get wet during the ride? Spray is very likely, particularly when travelling at speed or turning sharply. Even on calm days, wind and water can combine to leave you damp. Wearing waterproofs and layers makes a big difference to comfort, especially outside the height of summer. ### Is this suitable for someone new to boating? No prior boating experience is needed. Everything is explained clearly during the safety briefing, and you’re seated securely throughout the ride. The focus is on enjoying the experience rather than learning technical boating skills, making it accessible for first-timers. ### What landmarks will we see? The route typically includes Brighton Pier, the i360, West Pier, and stretches of coastline towards Hove. Seeing these from the water offers a completely different perspective. Conditions and skipper discretion may affect the exact route, but the aim is always to combine speed with recognisable coastal views. ### Are there any health restrictions? Yes. Due to the physical forces involved, anyone with spinal or musculoskeletal issues should not take part. The experience is also unsuitable during pregnancy. If unsure, it’s best to err on the side of caution, as powerboat rides can be physically demanding even in moderate conditions. ### What should I wear on the day? Dress for wind and water rather than air temperature. Several thin layers, waterproof jacket and trousers, and soft-soled trainers are ideal. Denim and hard-soled footwear should be avoided, as they restrict movement and can be uncomfortable when wet. ### Is there an age limit? The minimum age is 14, with anyone under 18 required to be accompanied by a parent or legal guardian. This ensures appropriate supervision and consent. There is also a maximum weight limit of 18 stone (115kg) due to safety and seating considerations. ### How many people will be on board? Group sizes are kept small, usually between four and six people. This allows everyone to experience the ride fully without overcrowding. Smaller groups also help the skipper tailor the ride to conditions and group comfort. ## Media - **Primary image URL (resolved in app; may be absolute)**: https://adventuro.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/02/Screenshot-2026-02-12-134602.png - **Gallery image count**: 10 ## Limitations - Availability, exact session times, and final price may depend on the live booking flow. - This Markdown is generated from the same catalog fields as the public HTML page at the canonical URL above.
