The water is a great leveller.In fact, even a river cruise is also quite a challenge!In these days of making marketing budgets work harder, faster and leaner the drive is always to find something memorable and effective within an increasingly restricted budget. Whether it’s for client hospitality or team building and motivational purposes, finding something that genuinely is new and ticks all those boxes is getting more difficult.A day out on a tall ship or cruising the river Thames is certainly an experience to remember. It’s great for corporate incentives, team building, hospitality, product launches, entertaining or management training and provides a rewarding and motivating experience for all.
Teamwork in particular is enhanced by learning to think and act together as a single crew.But it doesn’t have to be as business focused as all that.Events on board ship can also be the ideal way to arrange a staff party, wedding anniversary, VIP Dinner – virtually any occasion you care to mention can be given an extra dimension on water.
From time to time some of the world’s most beautiful ships visit the UK’s south coast and these can be chartered for sailing days and corporate incentives.Sailing with up to 100 guests on board, the day can be as active or as casual as you like.If it’s to entertain, then a relaxed sail with gin and tonics all the way will probably fit the bill.If you are looking for more adventure and activity there’s nothing better than mucking in with the crew and learning how to sail the ship.
Or if that’s not branded enough, organise your very own yacht sailing day or mini-regatta in the South of France. The kudos of having your own company mini-regatta in the Med racing super sailing yachts in the tranquil surroundings of a gorgeous island in the South of France, or from the chic coastal city of Nice really can’t be topped.A bespoke regatta gives the rare opportunity to take part in fleet racing and experience the real satisfaction that comes from being a well oiled machine (well at least while the bar is still open!).
