The Coral Star lies quietly on her mooring at the entrance to Yarmouth Harbour, she is a beautiful wooden passenger boat. The season of 2019 is sadly over but we will be back doing trips again in 2020. Please phone for information and to book.
Over the winter period she will be taken out of the water at the Yar boatyard for her yearly Maritime and Coastguard Agency surveys. Also during this time the crew, the painters and the shipwrights will be working on her so that she is in tip-top condition and ready for the 2020 season.

On Saturdays she does trips over to Lymington, it’s market day.
You can also catch her from Lymington for a tripS to Yarmouth and you can take the trip down to the Needles too, if you wish.
