Here at Solent Events we think that you’ll all agree that 2020 has been a challenging year for most people and a devastating one for others. Whilst marine based events are obviously trivial when compared to the development of vaccines and caring for those in need, we hope to play a very small part in helping getting things back to feeling ‘some kind of normal’ again when the time allows.
We recognise that a large number of employees have been working from home and have been isolated from their colleagues as well as friends and family. Going back to work may not necessarily be as simple as it first sounds as integrating with other staff again as well as commuting will seem alien for some that may not have seen the inside of an office or workplace for anything up to a year by the time the Furlough scheme runs its course. We strongly believe that team based fun activities will play a large part in cementing the invisible cracks that may have developed in recent months. Learning new skills together as well as setting achievable challenges will encourage confidence once again and leave each team member with a sense of achievement by the end of the day.
We also see that there will be those that want to get on and enjoy life but either don’t wish to travel abroad or will be more conscious of their impact when travelling large distances. If you have plenty of experience in handling powered craft, our sister company, The Lymington Boat Club may be an option but if you are looking for us to take care of everything, Solent Events have a whole range of marine based activities ready and waiting for you. 2020 saw a marked increase in the number of Luxury Powerboat Charters run for private groups with up to 12 guests on a single vessel (when guidelines allowed) and family & friends sailing events also stood out as having higher demand than usual during this last season.
Solent Events are confident that 2021 is set to be a bumper year with so many 2020 bookings deferred to the new season and the fact that so many will be itching to get outside again. All eyes are on a successful vaccine but our flexible Covid-19 booking terms mean that there is no risk in booking 2021 dates now as we’ll move the booking into 2022 if needed and ‘heaven forbid’, 2023 should Coronavirus regulations prevent the event going ahead.
