Leading UK charter business and operator of the Sunsail charter fleet in the UK, Prometheus Sailing Limited, have expanded their fleet of modern Sunsail 41.0 yachts in the UK.

Two brand new Jeanneau 41.0s were delivered to the Prometheus Sailing base in Port Solent, Portsmouth in January this year and are currently being commissioned and coded, ready to enter the Prometheus Sailing charter fleet from March 2024 onwards.

The Sunsail 41.0s are high quality 40ft, three cabin yachts, that can sail with up to 10 guests. The two new yachts, called Spirit of Prometheus and Cactus Jack's, bring the Prometheus Sailing fleet to 15 in total.

Prometheus Sailing already operates the most modern fleet of charter yachts in the UK and the addition of two new yachts brings the average fleet age down further and cements the businesses position at the forefront of the UK yacht charter industry.

Simon Boulding, Managing Director of Prometheus Sailing commented:

"Our significant investment in these new yachts signals our commitment to providing a high-quality product to our customers in the UK and we are proud to operate the youngest fleet of charter yachts anywhere in the country. This modern, spacious new yacht design has been very well received by our clients and has proved be a versatile yacht that is just as well suited to RYA sail training courses as it is to corporate racing events or cruising flotillas. We look forward to welcoming our clients onto these amazing new yachts soon."

Prometheus Sailing is the leading charter business in the UK and is the Official Charter Partner of Cowes Week and the Little Britain Challenge Cup, operates one of the largest RYA sailing schools in the world and works with many leading brands to organise team building, corporate hospitality and business partner regattas for their staff and clients.
