First 40.7
For racing thrills on a budget, there’s nothing to beat the First 40.7. There are now literally dozens of these boats available for charter in the Solent, so in principle it's possible to organise mini-regattas for over a hundred people using essentially identical yachts. We don't recommend putting more than 8 guests on these boats, although they are licensed for more.
Space below decks is relatively confined on these boats, so we don't recommend using them if you want a full buffet lunch served on-board. If you're unlucky with the weather and have to take lunch in the saloon, things can get a bit cramped.
