The Longueville Manor management team will launch the yacht at the Barclays Jersey Boat Show on Saturday 2nd May. They have arranged a VIP pontoon party, in partnership with Princess Yachts Channel Islands, to show off the vessel named Fizz Too to an invited guest list. She will remain on display to the public for the weekend; to celebrate the launch Longueville will be inviting visitors on board for free REN mini treatments provided by the Cottage Garden spa team.

From 6th May Fizz Too will be available exclusively for guests of the hotel to charter for half and full day trips. They will have the opportunity to visit one of the other Channel Islands, hop over to France, or simply enjoy an island coastal tour. A trip to Les Écréhous for dolphin and seal spotting is likely to be number one on the tourist wish list.

Catering for Fizz Too will be prepared by Longueville Executive Chef Andrew Baird and his team, ensuring the Manor's high standards are extended to on-board service. A skipper and attendant will also be provided to ensure guests have the most luxurious experience. A maximum of eight guests can be accommodated on each charter.

Malcolm Lewis, Proprietor, Longueville Manor, says:

'We are hugely excited to be launching Fizz Too for charter. I believe we are the first Channel Island hotel to offer our own private luxury yacht service. It's strictly for our hotel guests at Longueville and we believe it sits perfectly within our luxury proposition. I can't wait to share unique experiences with our guests such as dolphin spotting at Les Minquiers, picnics on Sark, or snorkelling on one of Jersey's beautiful offshore reefs. We hope to create some wonderful memories. 

We look forward to meeting everyone at the Barclays Jersey Boat Show 2015 and showing them on board Fizz Too. It's the perfect way to launch her for charter and we're very pleased to be partnering with Princess Yachts for this prestigious event that is set to see over 40,000 visitors over three days.'

Notes to Editor

About the Barclays Wealth Jersey Boat Show 2015: 

Now in its eighth year, the 2015 Barclays Jersey Boat Show will take place over the Bank Holiday weekend of Saturday 2 to Monday 4 May 2015. Organised by Ports of Jersey, the three-day show will take place in and around St Helier Marina and nearby Weighbridge Place. For more information and to see the programme of events visit: www.jerseyboatshow.com 

About Boating in the Channel Islands:

Les Écréhous - a group of islands and rocks situated six miles north-east of Jersey and eight miles from France. They form part of the Bailiwick of Jersey. All but the three largest are submerged at high tide. There are no permanent residents on the islands but there are a small number of fishermen's huts, some used as holiday residences. Maîtr'Île, the largest of the islets, is about 300 metres long. When timed correctly with the tides, they are wonderful to visit by private boat and seals can often be spotted in the area.

Les Minquiers - a group of islands and rocks about 15 km south of Jersey. At low tide, the rock shelf around the Minquiers has a larger surface area than Jersey itself but at high tide only a few of the main heads remain above water. The largest of these is Maîtresse, which is about 50metres long and 20metres wide and has about ten stone cottages. They have no permanent inhabitants, though fishermen, yachtsmen, even sometimes kayakers make summer landfall. It's a great location for dolphin spotting.
