Hired daydreak boat for four hours with 3 friends. We got a couple of hours into our trip and realised we were having such a nice time we rang to extend the booking - no problem. Dealt with Terry and Emma, both straightforward and pleasant. Will return

Rated 5 out of 5 by Chris Platt on 8th June 2022

We were super impressed with CBS. After looking at other boat companies we were pleasantly surprised with the price and size of the boat we got verses competition. It was well organised, the information we received was timely and informative. The introduction to the boat was first class. Would not hesitate to recommend.

Rated 5 out of 5 by Russell Bracegirdle on 12th September 2020

Visited Wednesday morning for boat \"pump out\", thus avoiding hire craft change over days.Most extremely helpful person appeared and assisted mooring alongside.He managed the whole process himself without my assistance. Very pleasant and helpful, contactless payment cheaper than other similar facilities.Perfect!Russell Bracegirdle
