Often available at late notice - call now!

Have you ever thought about chartering a RIB to get to and from the Isle of Wight or along the mainland coast? If you think it’s expensive and just for corporate events and not for families and friends, then think again.

Perhaps traffic held you up on your way down to the coast and you missed your yacht slipping lines for the Solent.

Urban Truant’s “Rigid Inflatable Boats” (RIBs) are fun and easy to charter. We’ll pick you up and drop you off almost anywhere in the Solent. You can choose your departure times, and we're also often available at late notice, so call now!

Easy exclusive transfers for up to 11 guests

Whilst most of Urban Truant’s RIBs take up to 8 guests, one of our 7.5 metre RIBs can take up to 11 people.

Pick-ups from anywhere in the Solent

You’re not just limited to Southampton or Portsmouth. We’ll pick you up or drop you off anywhere between Lymington and Portsmouth on the mainland, and Yarmouth and Bembridge on the Island-side.

If it’s the Isle of Wight Festival you’re going to, we’ll take you all the way up the River Medina – saving you the hassle of making your own way there.

Choose your departure times

Pre-book your departure time and we’ll come and pick you up – we’ll even give you an hour’s flexibility on that time if you’re enjoying yourselves, just ring our mobile number two hours in advance.

Cost effective and easy to charter

This exclusive taxi service costs from just £15pp based on trips between Hamble and Cowes. All our prices are all inclusive (fuel, wet weather gear, etc) and are for a one way trip. Trips usually start from Hamble - prices may vary if an alternative start location is required. There is a minimum charge of £90

For late notice transfers to a yacht or the Isle of Wight, please call us for availability and a price.

To book or to find out more information, simply contact us with details of your group, preferred dates, times and pick up / drop off locations. We will call you straight back.

Please be assured that we take your safety extremely seriously at all times. High speed rides may not be suitable for people with some medical conditions – please call us to discuss this at the time of booking. Not all RIB rides need to include a high speed element.

It doesn’t have to just be a journey; have some fun with Urban Truant instead!
