Chris, our driver was very experienced, kind and considerate of all passengers and gave everyone a great hour out on the water. He went through a safety briefing with us and explained the different experiences one gets at the front and the back of the boat, giving us the opportunity to swap over mid ride if we wished to.
What let this experienced down was the initial preparation and safety briefing (pre Chris). The lady (owner of the company) was quite rude and lacked empathy. She belittled a few of the customers by pointing out that they were not attaching their safety gear correctly and overtly said 'this isn't working, people don't listen' which is hardly professional. She was over-bearing in her approach and did not inspire confidence and for me, ruined the experience. I thoroughly enjoyed the experience but would not wish to promote her service based on my experience. Chris on the other hand was excellent.

So pleased with our experience. The boats were incredibly fun to ride in and, best of all, we were able to drive them ourselves. Skippers were very knowledgable, informative, and friendly.

We owe a special thanks to Nadia. We turned up at the wrong time for our first outing (not their fault, we missed one of their emails), but she arranged for another trip out especially for us.

So grateful for amazing experience and customer service. Highly recommended.

Saturday 31st Aug 2019 - I went out on the Jet Viper with my father, son and daughter, never before have three generations had so much fun together. My 11 year old daughter and 13 year old son loved it, in fact they have not stopped watching the 360 degree video footage since we got home! My father and I also loved it. Chris the skipper was brilliant and knew how to really throw the boat around but still keep us all alive! This is a great day out, be prepared to get very very wet, not a single item of clothing was dry 🙄. My children have already told me we are going back and can we buy one..!! Thanks to the team at Sabre from the Cox family.

I bought the 'ultimate experience package' as a gift for my wife to experience all three boats. We had an amazing day, thoroughly enjoying every bit of it! My wife loved taking the wheel and driving the fast Honda racing boat, bouncing off waves and doing donuts. The Jet Viper was really great fun too, with the skillful skipper twisting and turning to ensure all passengers got very wet, but smiles all round from everyone. We also got to keep great memories of the day from the 360 degree HD camera footage. Highly recommend fun, and certainly a day we won't forget! We plan to return very soon, for another go on the Hondas. Thanks again, from Dave & Kate.

We had turned up for the Jet Viper as a group of six not knowing what to expect...we were all VERY VERY WET with smiles ear to ear after an hour on the boat!! Seriously this boat is not like anything else I’ve been on and our skipper was absolutely superb. The whole team were great with communication and very attentive with safety from start to finish and I’d certainly visit again for an experience on the other boats. Thank you for a memorable day out

An amazing afternoon, my husband and daughter had the best time on the viper boat.... millie cant wait to do it again! Even our son who was too small to go on viper was allowed to sit in the Honda speed boat for pictures. Highly highly recommend for any thrill seekers!.

I was bought this experience as a gift for my birthday. The booking process on the website was very easy with plenty of slots available. We picked the 10.30am slot so that we could enjoy the rest of the day in Southampton. Unfortunately a couple of days later I recieved a call from the lady that owns the company to say the 10.30 slot was no longer available and she had moved me to 3.30pm. I found her to he rude over the phone and wouldn't give me an explanation as to why the time had been changed. Anyway we turned up on the day 30mins early as requested, we checked in and had the safety briefing from again the lady that owned the company and found her to be rude to some of the other customers. We then waited 1.5hrs to eventually go on the boat. We didnt get told why we were waiting so long or any apology. We just had to wait in the rain outside until we eventually got showed onto the boat. The skipper we had was very good and made sure we got very wet. Unfortunately half way through the 1hr experience he told us he needed fuel for the boat as he hadn't had time to fill up earlier in the day. This then took 20mins up of our 1hr experience to then be told the fuel station was closed. The skipper apologised and said they were having a bad day. Unfortunately this ruined my experience and would not recommend this company.

Arrived Yesterday 7th September for a 1.30pm appointment on the Honda 150 Speedboat. It was my Friend Bryans 65th Birthday present and we both thoroughly enjoyed the event. Weather Good and winds not to strong, so the swell on the Solent not too bad. May try the Viper next year Best Wishes Paul Sheldon-Matthews
