Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

This was our third trip out with Powerboat Days and the best so far! We lucked out with the weather this time - sunny & 26 degs - but it’s great whatever the weather.
Such an amazing experience to be able to drive a Sunseeker! We were very well looked after by Roy and Asa as always - they’re extremely hospitable and great company. Highly recommend you give this trip a go. Already looking forward to trip number 4 next season! :)

From beginning to end our Powerboat Days experience was excellent! Roy and Asa were both extremely accommodating and kept the entire group relaxed and laughing the whole time. They take the time to make it a very personalized experience by learning everyone’s names and giving each person a little go at being the captain. A very efficient and well thought out day on a beautiful boat! Will definitely return for more outings with Powerboat Days!

Well organised and run. A fantastic 2.5 hours on the water in and around Southampton and the Isle of Wight. The Skipper (Duncan) and his crew (Matt) were ideal for this experience from the briefing to the execution of the experience. Driving the boat and experiencing both smooth and choppy waters made for a memorable afternoon. Would recommend without reservation.

A must for anyone who would like try a fast powerboat experience.
The crew were great company and nothing was to much trouble

The boat was very clean both inside and out, drinks available on board including beer and bubbly and the Banana Wharf breakfast was superb to.

Thanks again for a great time.

Lovely boat with a great couple, Jim and Roy. Everyone got a chance to drive the boat at slow speed around the Southampton dock area before taking to the open water in the Solent when the engines were "opened up" and you got a feel of just how powerful this Sunseeker is. Again, everyone got a chance to drive at speed (under the careful watch of Roy) before he took full control and put the boat through it's paces. Petrol head, speed freak or fun seeker, this will suit all!

Had a great afternoon with Roy and his ship mate on his Sunseeker Portofino boat. The weather also helped - it was warm and sunny. Enjoyed visiting Cowes and surrounding waterside attractions

This was given to us as a Christmas present. It was a brilliant few hours. We all got a chance to drive the bat at differing speeds and had a blast on the waters to the Isle of Wight. Would highly recommend. Staff were very friendly and experienced.
