Operating from the Isle of Man we offer
cruises throughout the north Irish sea, Irish coast and
south west and western Scotland.
Our
boat, the trawler yacht “ Pelagos Venture ” offers the
opportunity to both groups and individuals to cruise these
areas in safety, comfort and style and enjoy watching the
wildlife , sea life and the costal scenery. You can go
fishing, diving, exploring the coast, use our children's
sailing dinghy, sea kayak, yacht tender or simply relax and
enjoy the scenery. Children are very welcome as long as they
are supervised by an adult. We are happy to provide "Race
Boat Support" for yacht racing events such as Cork
Week, Scottish Series, West Highland Week, Bangor Week etc.
Pelagos Venture is available for hire on
a daily basis. She can take 12 guests and has overnight
accommodation for up to 7 guests. Cruises can be arranged to
suit your itinerary and time scale. We are happy to suggest
routes and cruises based on our own extensive experience of
the area.
Our boat costs £400 per day to hire ex
food and fuel. You can arrange your own catering or
alternatively we can agree and price a menu according to
your needs. For trips longer than 24 hours, for logistical
reasons, we recommend our catering services are used.
The 23liter six cylinder Kelvin engine
uses approximately 2 gallons per hour and for your comfort
we do not recommend motoring for more than a maximum of 6
hours per day. We can therefore estimate a fuel surcharge of
about an additional £60-£70 per day. All fuel is metered and
a consumption record will be available.
